food & drink

I thought I'd share a couple of Blog Post's especially for my British and American friends who like history and wine as it's about Ribeiro wines. See https://englishresourcecentre.com/en/the-ancient-exportation-of-ribeiro-wine-ribadavia-to-great-britain/...

Thank you everyone for helping me out on my coastal path to Constella. I am now in on my way to Ponte de lima and up Central straight to Santiago. Questions - 1. Good Food places recommendations? Good price and service! 2. Answered 3. Any other advice, heads up and recommendations?

I will be stopping at Villa do conde, Esposende and Viana do castello. Are therr any must try Pilgrim Menus on the way or at those locations? I am currently on my walk from Porto now! Thank You! For dinner or lunch!

Hi I'd like to ask people's opinions. What are your favourtie items from a Pilgrim Menus? Personally I usually go for sopa or ensalada verde for starter and then lomo or pollo for main course. For dessert I usually go for yogurt which I keep for breakfast. Gerald

So , most of the time when feasting on a pilgrims menu , it ends off with a small tub of yogurt or an ice cream? my advice is ask for an alternative , a flan which most restaurants and bars have. My best flan ever was in a small town 10 miles from Burgos , a goat's milk flan - I thought I had...

I will be arriving in SJPDP early afternoon any recommendations for a good budget friendly restaurant?

I just finished the Camino Frances on 9/29. What an amazing experience! The scenery was magnificent, the other pilgrims were wonderful, and most of the local people were very supportive and helpful. The prices were amazingly good. For example, I stopped many days for second breakfast and got...

One of my favourites in SdC. I first poked my head in the door after my first Camino in 2008. Wasn't sure, but Pepe said:"We go in". You don't argue with Pepe. My question for those currently in SdC, has this important bar survived the Covid troubles? Is it still run by the same family? Is the...

Hi, Im caminokuzzi. I leave from the USA in two weeks. Question regarding a list i saw regarding packing list for Covid. Is it really necessary to bring a lunch kit- fry pan, plates, flatwear etc???

On my first night on the Camino (Fall 2013), at Orisson, for dessert we were served a wonderful cream-filled cake. I have always thought it was a version of the Tarta de Santiago — until I just read this article...

Several recent threads touch (lightly) on the painful results of pilgrims on Camino suffering from either food poisoning or possibly stomach flu. In these threads, the writer describes the symptoms and, if professionally treated, the clinical finding. But, let’s be candid, “When you are vomiting...

For any lucky Forum members living in (or visiting) the Washington DC area, there's a stellar and affordable Spanish restaurant in Bethesda. Buen provecho!~ https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/food/spanish-diner-restaurant-review/2021/07/08/ae02996a-da9c-11eb-8fb8-aea56b785b00_story.html...

How great, that Estrella Galicia, one of my favorite beers along the Camino, is now brewing "Estrella del Camino," made from natural ingredients from different Camino routes, in a celebratory tribute to Xacobeo, 2021-2022. Read the article here. I may have to go on a Camino, just to try this...

Hi, .. I read somewhere of a Michelin-starred restaurant (2 or 3 stars) in an inn not far off the Camino Le Puy but I cannot remember the name or location or where I read about it. Google not turning it up. Does anyone know? Traveling with my daughter after her high school graduation and thought...

Hello! I am about to walk my first Camino in August and would love to get restaurant recommendations from more experienced pilgrims. I don't really care about Michelin stars, but I am a foodie and would love to know about the Camino's hidden gems. Can't wait to hear about your experiences! Thank...

Looking forward to experiencing a new variety of chocolate bliss. What’s your favourite chocolate on the Camino? 🍫 😊

Anyone have any restaurant recommendations for Saint Jean Pied du Port.

If you are passing through Paris on your way to start the Camino Frances at St Jean, maybe you are staying a night in Paris or have a few hours to look around? A place I love to visit is a bit of a Paris 'icon'. It's a restaurant called Bouillon Chartier. Pat and I have been there a couple of...
