An informal tapas meal sets the right mood to relax and enjoy your time with your friends.Small portions like tapas allow you to try and discuss more dishes, and conversation over a shared meal brings everyone closer together.

• Cook or buy some tapas – or invite your guests to each bring a tapa. Bread is essential!
• Drinks are a must – wine, beer or non-alcoholic drinks are all good.
• Serve the dishes in small portions on a casually-set table. Small bowls, IKEA 365+ serving plates and a serving tray like a PROPPMÄTT chopping board are ideal.
• Skip the plates – just give guests forks, spoons and GRUPPERA napkins. Let them stand around the table and enjoy the conversation.
