Glorious food on the different Caminos

[SabsP]

Being faithful to my avatar...

La Boteria in Pamplona...delicious pintxos and vino.

The Calle Laurel in Logroño : heaven for pintxos/ tapas lovers. For instance : Sepia / Zapatilla / Patatas Bravas.

Some pasta in the kitchen of Azofra : somple pasta with onion / can of tuna / passata and some cheese....the food of the gods...

Pastry somewhere in Burgos

Some croquetas : Burgos

Huevo de codorniz/ chorizo and pepper.

The café con leche moment with a lovely pastry...

Wineboard somewhere in Leon.

I had my favourite meal in Ferrol in the restaurant Camiño do Inglés before I started the morning after.
It was lovely.

A small starter before the starter, Lentejas

Starter, marinated tuna on a vegetable parfait

Main course, roast beef, potato purée and yellow wax beans

Dessert, home made raspberry icecream with apple gel and a cup of tea.

The dinner cost me €30 without any alcohol but it was so worth it and the owner is so welcoming and friendly. They have different menus every day. Depending on what they have found on the market.

Falcon, is that Casa Marcelo by any chance?

 

[Deleted member 3000]

Yes. It ain't cheap!

No worries...I prefer eating well and good than pay for mediocre food. And even then : Michelin and Gault -Millau rated spanish restos are still much much cheaper than the Belgian ones.

Great! I agree with you. Here in Sweden the main course it self would have cost that. So in comparison to home it was not expensive. I had a really good dinner at don Quijote in Santiago as well.

Pulpo...you either love it or hate it In Melide.

Salivating at these photos. Love the look of that pulpo. Imagining it with pimientos de Padron and a lovely chilled glass of albarino on a warm Spanish evening for as I write rain is battering the windows and the wind howls. I wonder if the pilgrims office issues a compostella to peregrinos doing the Camino for gastronomic reasons?....

Great topic and photos!!

My two FAVORITE breakfasts on the Camino -
Very fresh bread, lots of butter and jam, and a LARGE glass of cafe con leche - in Cizur Menor

Bacon & eggs in Azofra

They are very tempting photos. Have spent some time in Northern Spain and there are some lovely foods to try out.
It is one of the great things of trying and tasting different foods. I also love those cafes con leche, beautiful at any time during the day, especially in the afternoon in a plaza watching the world go by.
