Deb,

At 43 Real de Oriente in Castrojerez is a nice cafe, La Taberna, with rooms and a Brazilian connection. A big photo of the author Paulo Coelho standing with the owner is next to the door. When staying at the nearby municipal albergue I have often eaten here over the years since their Taberna pilgrim dinner is varied, excellent and cheap. The owner-barman, a true diplomat, always remembers me; his wife does the delicious cooking...If you do stop please give them my best wishes!

Margaret, isn't this the place to which the wandering dog belonged? The dog that walked over the hill every day with pilgrims and had to be brought back? And was then sadly poisoned one day. It looks so familiar to me, but it has been a decade.

Laurie, this was the home of the poisoned dog. My photo may look familiar to you since I posted it earlier on the Forum in response to a query from Scruffy.
