Azul Tapas Inspired Lounge & Patio Now, about those tapas. I think the term “tapas-inspired” is more appropriate, since Azul takes tapas to a whole new level. Tapas are those little plates of savory ingredients that originated in Spain and are now much in vogue throughout the world. Ranging from a simple dish of olives to more elaborate creations, they can be served as a snack, hors d’oeuvres, or combined to make an entire meal. But Chef Spike has taken the concept and transformed the little plates into culinary works of art. Using fresh ingredients and combining Mediterranean, Asian and California spices and cooking styles, Azul offers some of the most delicious and exciting dishes in the Desert. 369 North Palm Canyon Drive Palm Springs, CA 92262 |
