In recent years, the culinary world has witnessed a surge in the popularity of tapas, those delightful Spanish small plates bursting with flavor. What was once confined to the streets of Spain has now become a global gastronomic phenomenon. And for many aspiring entrepreneurs, this trend presents an enticing opportunity: turning their passion for tapas into a lucrative side hustle. But diving into the world of tapas as a side hustle requires more than just culinary skill; it demands strategic planning, effective marketing, and a deep understanding of your target audience.

With my heart set on the idea, I set out on a journey to create SharpKnife.
