 In between walks, concerts and religious services, take a break to enjoy Granada''s special tapas for Lent. Have cod stew with chickpeas for lunch, try the Granada remojón salad and the omelettes made of asparagus or collejas (campions). Finish your meals with homemade desserts like rice pudding, custard, Spanish-style doughnuts, pestiños (honey-coated fritters), leche frita (fried cinnamon milk dough) and Albaicín-style fritters. These are all examples of Granada''s traditional dishes, still made in the time-honoured way.
