A Felisa Tapas Bárban a célom az, hogy a mediterrán konyhák legizgalmasabb változatát, a spanyol gasztronómiát ismertessem meg a vendégeinkkel. A tapasok egyszerűnek tűnnek, de változatosságuk miatt igazi gasztronómiai élményt nyújtanak. A konyhában mindig nagy hangsúlyt helyezek a frissességre és az ízekre, ennél az étkezési formánál viszont a gyorsaság is legalább olyan fontos mint az első kettő szempont.
