Hi,
I was wondering if anyone with experience of the Camino frances could tell me how many albergues have cooking facilities- to cook your own food.
Many thanks for your help!
Thanks for your helpGronze.com shows a symbol of a cooking pot next to albergues that have kitchens.
The covered dish symbol means that they offer a communal meal.

Ok, thanks for your help!Its not so much the question whether or not the albergue has a kitchen, but if the kitchen is open for usage. During my May-June walk unfortunately lots of them were closed
Welcome, Good Luck and Buen Camino!
Thankyou,Generally on the Gronze.com website and in many of the guidebooks and Apps, you can find whether an albergue has a kitchen for pilgrim use or not. Many do, some don't. Some have a great kitchen, but no utensils (like in Galicia). Others may not have more than a microwave. BTW, welcome. I see this is your first post!
YouTube saved me several times on this...also taught me how to use and care for the ventless dryers you see more often in Europe...AND now to use the Spanish washing machine on the short cycle...If you are a simpleton American like me I always have to be retaught on every camino how to use their stoves!
