Ever'body eats tapas, y'all

Posted by Cliff Bostock on Tue, Mar 31, 2009 at 12:18 AM

OK, now there can be no doubt: Tapas have been completely assimilated by the culture.

I say this because my friend Gregg called me this evening from the Colonnade, the iconic Southern restaurant on Cheshire Bridge Road,  where he said a tapas menu is being offered.

I called the restaurant and was informed that the menu was offered all last week and will "probably" be offered all this week. The tapas basically comprise this week's specials menu.

Dishes on the menu include your usual Colonnade favorites like fried oysters. I couldn't hear much else of Gregg's or the restaurant employee's description above the din of noisy diners in the background, but I can't wait to try it.

You should also know that the Colonnade also serves up classics such as black-eyed peas and fried okra, fried chicken and lima beans. But you can't miss the Parker House rolls - absolutely awesome!!! Brian R. Callahan Atlanta, GA

Tapas at the Colonnade... clearly the end of civilization as we know it.

I have just heard that the country of Spain is officially going to cease using the word "tapas" and replace it with the trendy English word "snacks."
