I am working on revisions for the forum Invierno guide. As you may know, the Invierno merges with the Sanabrés in A Laxe, right at the albergue door. I think most of what I have is up to date, but I have questions about the albergue in Outeiro (up the hill from Ponte Ulla).
The last time I walked through there, the hospitalera was the one I had had before. She was a little fussy but perfectly nice, and had a little hut out back with her own little kitchen in it. She served (pricey and not so great) meals to pilgrims in the evening. I have read somewhere that there may be a new hospitalera and that the hut is definitely not there anymore. I would appreciate updated info on this, and also on the question whether nearby restaurants deliver food to the albergue. I know they did back in the day before this "hospitalera with a hut", but had stopped while she was there. I am betting the albergue kitchen continues to have virtually nothing but te stove, sink, and refrigerator.
Pazo de Galegos is a nice, if pricey, option (short walk downhill), and I believe several pilgrims reported eating a meal there while sleepig in the albergue.
Thanks for any updates! Buen camino, Laurie
