ARCHIVED - Alicante Ruta del Foc tapas route: June 15 to 23
Sample traditional tapas and a drink for just €3 in Alicante city on the Costa Blanca.
Alicante has launched its Ruta del Foc (June 15-23) to promote bars and restaurants during the San Juan festivities, with 24 establishments offering tapas and a drink for just €3.
In addition, three meals to the value of €150 are up for grabs while the city centre streets will be decorated and there will be children's entertainment, brass bands, parades and other activities.
The gastronomic route, organised by local traders' associations, will centre around Calle Quintana, the Central Market area and Calderón-Plaza de Toros.
And one of the 24 bars and restaurants taking part will receive a prize for the 'best tapas', chosen by the public.
To participate in the tapas route and be in with a chance to win one of the three meals which will be raffled at the end of the initiative, just pick up a route map and ask each venue to stamp it.
Once you have at least six different stamps, post your route map in one of the polls which are located in all the bars and restaurants taking part.
The tapas route is one of two taking place in Alicante at the moment.
