[QUOTE="jungleboy, post: 987510, member: 77691"] It's not that bad in my experience. While what the person you replied to said regarding the daily or pilgrim menus is generally true, there are also more options if you seek them out. We have always found that even if there's nothing suitable on the menu, restaurant staff in Spain are usually willing to accommodate requests. Speaking Spanish helps but even without it, making suggestions for dishes that already contain ingredients they know/have is a good idea. For example, if you're in a small village with one restaurant and you ask for a tofu red curry or a buddha bowl, that's not realistic. But if you ask for [I]parrillada de verduras [/I](grilled vegetables, always more delicious than it sounds!), [I]paella de verduras[/I], [I]garbanzos guisados[/I] (stewed chickpeas) etc, you should have more luck. ¡Buen camino y buen provecho!
