Want to try some Spanish inspired tapas with a Southern twist? Mateo bar de Tapas in Durham is wonderfully delicious and has such a warm feel.
I loved everything we tried there and especially I remember the roasted spring onions. Owner Matthew Kelly told us how the onions are sold all over the streets in Spain. We had a small sampling of the many plates offered – Patatas Bravas, Gambas, Alemendras and of course some jamon. Seriously yummy.
Mateo’s also has an impressive offering of sherry. We didn’t get to try any since it was on the job but the beautiful painted menu on the mirrors looked amazing!
Can’t wait to go back again soon!
