There's a lot of special food that is possible to taste in big areas, like the purrusalda (Vasque Country, Navarra, Rioja), but it's just an example because the spanish gastronomy is specially rich, with a big variety. Different kind of cheeses, deserts, liquors, anywhere.
When you have to take lunch or dinner walking the Camino and you find the "Menú del Peregrino", sometimes it's just any pasta (spaguetti, etc) and some meat, but if you pay just a bit else you possibly can enjoy a much better local lunch or dinner.
The most famous example is Ezequiel in Melide. But it's possible to enjoy better octopus in other places in Galicia, but this is the most famous, of course.
Buen Camino,
