I think you should expect the director to have exercised some artistic licence.TheWay said:In that film 'The Way' you see so many delicious looking meals!! I've watched the movie and am really inspired. Can anyone tell me if you can really eat big traditional meals with friends and locals? Can anyone compare the film and the real experience in terms of food for me?
Thanks!!
(If you haven't heard of the film, here is a link to the Australian facebook page for it: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id= ... 8446443308)
"That was way harsh, Tai." :mrgreen: :mrgreen:Tapas is just an excuse to not cook and serve cold leftovers.
I believe the restaurant in SJPdP that is in the opening scene of The Way is Chez Dede, also known as la Vielle Auburge, at 3 rue de la France . Here is a link to their page in the tourist bureau listing./www.saintjeanpieddeport-paysbasque-tourisme.com/fr/restaurants/restaurant/fiche/restaurant-la-vieille-auberge-chez-dede.html. As Sister Pearl said it is just around the corner from the rue de la Citadelle and the offices of the Amies du Chemin de Saint Jacques at 39 rue de la Citadelle where you get your Credential.
Buen Camino and Bon Appetite!

PS I have eaten here on all my Caminos.
Reb, I think you're being a bit harsh here. There's plenty of good quality pilgrim menus out there as well, prepared by people who like providing meals for pilgrims. Granted, there may be a higher proportion of them on other caminos, away from the Frances.go for the "menu del dia," usually for about 9 Euro you get a wide choice of starters, mains, dessert and drink. (Do not confuse it with the Pilgrim Menu, which is often like eating at a tourist trap -- cheap, salty carbs and processed microwave meals no self-respecting Spaniard would touch.)
I love it when someone exhumes an old thread from before the introduction of the 'Like' button. Takes me back to earlier times when the forum was but a place of occasional village gossip, before we/they built this mighty frenetic information metropolis..
I know this is an old thread, but there is some great advice here.
I like the idea of making lunch the main meal of the day.
Roughly what times do most places serve lunch?
Reb, you mentioned 2:30 pm....... Is that when they generally start?
