(in Madrid) Last week we went into the below bar called "Café de San Milla" (or San M-something, can't remember and can't read it on the photo) on Calle de Toledo, 61 - right near the eastern of the three LA LATINA metro stations. We went in last Monday noon for a "clara con limon" (beer with lemon soda), sat at the bar and ordered. We were sitting there talking about free tapas and I mentioned this thread. My signifant other said something like:
"This is just a bar. They don't really have any tapas under glass. But they really should give a free tapa in most places just because most things they'd give are so cheap. For example, a small plate of olives, nuts, or potato chips - the cheapest available bought in bulk - would only cost them, maybe 0.15 €. And even if they raised the price of the drink by 0.15€ it would give the customer a good feeling and make them want to return."
So we discussed this topic for awhile and midway through my drink I went downstairs to the restroom. Upon coming up the stairs to the bar I looked at my S.O. and she, upon seeing me, had a big grin on her face while she was pointing to the small plate of "Patatas Ali-Oli" in front of her. A FREE TAPA AFTERALL! hehehe.. Good story.
