I walked the camino on the five-meal-a-day plan, and still lost weight. But this meal defeated me.
est spaghetti sauce in the whole world in the whole history of mankind: Restaurante las Murallas, Astorga.
Paul,
Check out some of the tasty links/tips in this earlier but still relevant Forum thread.

Happy tasting and Buen camino!
There’s a great menu del dia around 16 € at the restaurant in Hostal Albany in Leon. And I had a truly splendid meal somewhere in Cacabelos in 2014...really wish I could recall where!Hi
Starting another CF Orisson August 21. My favourite meals on the Camino are the big social communal diners in an alburgue or a popular pilgrim menu spot, or a tapas night orgy. However I do like a break from the pilgrim menu and to treat myself to a nice lunch or dinner every now and then.
Any suggestions for nicer menu del dia on the CF 12-20 euro range?
Also any foodie/ wine experiences on the way for a blow out treat?
Cheers Paul
Yesterday I was in Arévalo (cdlevante). Restaurant El Toston de Oro is a great place for lambHi

Try the hostal facing the church in Carrion de los Condos. When they say pork, they mean a pork joint on the bone and their sangria is amazing. Down the street from albergue Otero in O Pedrouzo, there is a restaurant whose idea of menu del peregrino is a steak served on a hot stone still spitting and sizzling. Wish I had not mentioned it now, my mouth is wateringHi

If you will ever walk the Camino Sanabres there's not no miss the restaurant Me Gusta Comer in Rionegro del Puente. Four course 5 star menu for 10€ (drinks included). And the chef is also an awarded artist (painter). Quite an honour to talk to him!Plenty of foodies I see have been on Camino! It is reassuring to know that when the time comes, I and my chef husband will not be disappointed. Buen Camino!
Yes I agree. Instagram worthy starter. Digestives with dessert. So good for lunch I brought everyone in the albergue for dinner and he organised for me to get different dishes so I didn't repeat the lunch. I don't know how they can do it for the price.If you will ever walk the Camino Sanabres there's not no miss the restaurant Me Gusta Comer in Rionegro del Puente.

And albergue is another treat!!! Just across the street...
I agree Albergue Villares del Orbigo Cristina is an amazing cook, we had a fabulous meal and a delicious egg breakfastyou´re right, Sabine. The bus stop in Astorga has a great Menu upstairs. The one at Leon is pretty good, too! La Morena in Ledigos is good, but be careful ordering drinks at the bar there... the price paid by pilgrims is significantly higher than price paid by locals, and I cannot stomach that.
Vegetarian food at the Alberge Laganares in San Nicolas Real Camino is quite good. For a wonderful homemade communal dinner, you can´t beat Albergue Villares del Orbigo -- Cristina is a great host and a great cook! For a lash-out delicious meal, go to La Curiosa in Mansilla de las Mulas, (Meditteranean fusion with local ingredients) or Koi, in downtown Leon, for Japanese -- they have a Bento lunch that´s tip-top.
