FIL: Isang maliit na piraso ng tinapay, biskwit, o pastry na may masarap na palamang sa ibabaw, at karaniwang inihahain bilang pampagana.
EN: canapé, appetizer
The tiny, one-bite snack you see at fancy parties or hotel buffets. It's what you eat while trying to look sophisticated, holding a glass of wine in your other hand. You're supposed to eat it in one go, but you always try to nibble at it, only for the topping to fall off. The eternal struggle.
From French 'canapé' (appetizer). The name is a figurative comparison to a person sitting on a sofa.
Used in culinary or catering contexts. This is a homonym of 'kanape' (sofa).
