70/100

Galician gastronomy is a cult of the highest quality products, both from the sea and the land. It is an honest cuisine, without great artifices, where the flavor of seafood, fish, beef or vegetables is the real protagonist.

Especialidades Regionales

seafood platter

The quintessential feast. A tray with the best of Galician seafood, cooked or grilled: crabs, crabs, sea oxen, crayfish, prawns and, of course, barnacles, the treasure of the cliffs.

Octopus 'á Feira'

The most iconic dish. Whole cooked octopus, cut into slices with scissors, and served on a wooden plate with cachelos (cooked potatoes). It is seasoned with coarse salt, paprika (sweet and spicy) and a generous splash of olive oil.

Galician Empanada

A bread or puff pastry dough filled with a sauce ('zaragallada'). The most famous are those with tuna, cod with raisins, zamburiñas (small scallops) or meat.

Galician Broth

The comforting spoon dish. A steaming soup based on turnip greens (turnip sprouts), collard greens or cabbage, with potatoes, white beans and unto (rancid pork fat) that gives it its characteristic flavor.

Padrón Peppers

The famous saying: 'some sting and others don't'. Small green peppers fried and served with coarse salt. Eating them is a fun game of gastronomic chance.

Lacón with Grelos

The star dish of the Galician carnival. Lacón (the front leg of the pig, cured and salted) slowly cooked with turnip greens, potatoes and chorizo. A hearty and delicious dish.

Galician beef

A meat with Protected Geographical Indication, famous for its tenderness and flavor. Ideal to enjoy a good grilled steak.

    Mejor época
    **Summer (late June to early September)** is the most popular time with the most stable weather, ideal for enjoying the beaches and parties. **Spring and autumn** are excellent to do the Camino de Santiago and enjoy the landscape with fewer people. **Winter** is rainy and cool, but it has a special charm to enjoy spoon-fed cuisine and see the power of the sea on the coast.
