In 2005, Jose Garces brought the small-plates craze to Philadelphia with his flagship Spanish tapas outlet Amada. And three years later, his freshly sliced charcuterie and perfect tortilla Espaola still rule the genre. Fans of this food have only multiplied over time; prime Saturday-night reservations are still booked six weeks out.
