Walked back from Santa Maria del Sar to the market, those in the know know that there is a restaurate there which will cook whatever spiny monster of the deep you choose for only 4€. Market price freshest of the freshest. Picked out some shrimp and some clams when I met Hans, a pastor/priest from Holland who had walked with me for a day or two. He was admiring a lobster but could not allow himself such an extravagance . "Let's go half and half on the shrimps the clams and the lobster" I offered. Such a delicious temptation could not be refused + the Godello wine? I am very glad that The Day of Attonement is behind me!
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Thanks for the heads up on the market restaurant. Will have to visit when I next make it to Santiago.

name/place of restaurant?
No name that I could see. Have been here before located in first hall of the market from the NorthEast big sign you buy and we cook in Spanish and English. Open only market hours meaning closed evenings , Sunday, and Monday. They know their business!
 
Not knowing a name either, just an approximate location: Near the Mercado de Abastos is the Church Jesuit Church of St. Augustin and there in the same little place is a restaurant that offers this service. @JohnnieWalker might know its name ;-) Buen Camino, SY
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
On google maps is looked like it was very very near to Casa Ivar.
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
