A tapa is a snack or little bite of food. It's like an hors d'oevre portion.
It means a cover - a topping. Traditionally in Spain, it was a small plate on top of a glass of beer to stop insects falling in from the roof-space in bars.

Someone started to put tiny portions of food on the plate - and the idea caught on. Now, tapas are an accepted range of foods in small portions, found in most Spanish bars
