As my 'dearly beloved' enjoys eating as much as I do, but is also a great cook, there is a chance we might trying cooking a couple of evenings. If there are no great local places to eat you understand. She might not need pursuading
Having never stayed in Albergues before and certainly having never cooked in one, I thought it best to find out the 'Kitchen Etiquette' in advance.
Assuming we find ourselves in an Albergue with cooking facilities. I have a dumb question....
Let's say we head out to buy some ingredients, perhaps with some newly met friends.
We then get back to the Albergue to cook a communal meal.
Are we likely to find ourselves waiting for 3 hours for the kitchen to be free?
I'm not suggesting there is a Camino equivalent of that amusing practice of 'certain' European tourists.....who dash down in the morning to put their beach towels on the best deck chairs around the pool
But, how does it all work?
Wouldn't want to be upsetting my fellow Pilgrims by not knowing the form and all that......
P.S. And Yes. I'll pick up a small sharp kitchen knife in SJPDP. Good tip...
