A word for the wise
Spanish Tapas originated more than 700 years ago in the province of Cádiz. Legend has it that King Alfonso X stopped for refreshment at a local tavern on the coast. It was a hot and windy day, so the waiter kindly covered the king’s glass with a thin slice of cured ham to protect it. The king enjoyed the ham and noticed how it complemented the sherry while stopping the alcohol from going to his head, so he ordered another with the same ‘tapas’ (a cover). Shortly after, the king decreed that all taverns serve alcoholic drinks with tapas. Bars sprang up all over Spain, with a variety of tasty treats covering the drinks. The king’s good judgment soon earned him the name ‘el Sabio’ (the wise one). Some say he was called el Sabio for his many and varied contributions to culture, yet we like to believe his greatest gift was the humble tapas bar. So in homage to el Sabio we named our first tapas place in 2011 on Duxton Hill. And now in Sentosa Cove, the legend lives on…

Sabio’s Sangria Based on popular wine punches circling Europe at the time, Sangria boasts an assortment of fruit stewed in a claret base mixed with soda water and sugar. Its rich flavour and light body made it an instant hit, especially during summer months, as its chilled, refreshing taste is the perfect remedy to the heat. Soon it was served at parties of all sizes – from small restaurant gatherings to extravagant aristocratic lawn parties. Its popularity grew throughout Spain until it made its international debutat the 1964 World's Fair in New York. Even though its market has expanded, the spirit of Sangria lives on in its making. Its beauty is in its flexibility. Combinations and quantities of fruit and wine can be refined until a blend reaches perfection. At Sabio we have entered into the long history of Sangria with our own perfected recipe.
