I have been reading Tim Moore's book "Spanish Steps, travels with my donkey" for the second time. It is a great book and it was the one that started my interest in the Camino de Santiago. I seriously recommend it as a good read and informative in so many ways. Your library might be able to lend it you for free.
He recommends that you must try the "pulpo" in Galicia. Reading another thread Anenome recommends
"eat cocido maragato in Astorga" as one of the things that you should do whilst on the Camino.
My thought is (and bear in mind I'm trying to keep my weight down), what is there on the menu that I should at least have a try at? There must be some real delights that are specialities of the regions that we are traversing that should be tried at least once.
What beers stand out as being worth trying twice?
It is my first camino and I want to make the most of it given that it could also be my last........
