[QUOTE="good_old_shoes, post: 1110490, member: 47112"] Many albergues still have kitchens. The list of albergues you get at St. Jean should include the information which do have one. Sometimes it's only a microwave or a kitchen only for "cold" use, or there are stoves but no pots ect ... But even if there's no kitchen at all, you can still prepare sandwiches, salads ect. if you bring a small pot, spoon/fork and knife :-) I walked from home last year, with a tent, and still didn't bring a stove. On the Francés it is not needed, even if you're on a budget. Wildfires are a big problem so even if you're careful, locals won't like it if they see you using a stove somewhere outside. I remember at least the following albergues to have a functioning kitchen (last summer / 2022): - Roncesvalles (giant kitchen with very limited amount of plates ect., no shop, so bring basic ingredients or dehydrated trekking food). - Zubiri albergue municipal (shop in town) - Zabaldika donation based communal dinner - Cizur Menor, albergue Orden Malta, small shop in town or supermarket in Cizur major, better bring ingredients from Pamplona - Puente la Reina, albergue padres reparadores, shop in town - Estella municipal had the stoves turned off, rest worked, shops in town - los Arcos, albergue Isaac Santiago, shop in town - Logrono albergue parroquial had a donation based communal dinner - Najéra municipal, supermarkets in town - Granon albergue parroquial, donation based communal dinner - Burgos municipal, microwave kitchen, no plates ect., no fridge either if I remember correctly, but good enough to prepare a cold meal. Supermarkets in town. Ect. For the rest of the way I skipped a few sections due to injury/illness and also often camped on the campsites instead of at the albergues, so can't say much about the kitchen situation further on. But maybe this at least gives you an idea that there are still many albergues where you can cook or eat the communal dinner even on a budget. At the places with communal dinner, talk to the hospitaleros. If the dinner is not possible for you because of the allergy, they'll probably come up with an alternative idea. Don't be afraid, you won't starve, even if you decide to leave the stove at home! Happy planning and buen Camino 🙂 [/QUOTE]
