From the humblest of cafeterias to the hautest of dining rooms, chefs in Galicia, Asturias, and Cantabria emphasize the use of fresh, local ingredients. Excellent, cheap meals can be found at smaller, family-run eateries, which usually stick to traditional foods and tend to draw mostly local crowds. Restaurants that stray from the culinary norm—and which also offer top-notch service and elegant surroundings—usually also include a higher price tag.
Decorated with an ornate barometer to gauge the famously unpredictable local weather, this family-run seafood spot is in a 19th-century building on the harbor. In addition to an inexpensive menú del día (prix fixe), there's outstanding seafood à la carte including fried calamares (squid) and uni-stuffed asparagus. If there were ever a place to splurge on bogavante, large-claw lobster, it's here. For dessert, the fig ice cream is delicious.
With a front row view seat to the fishing port, the seafood menu may call. But at this no-frills cider house it's all about cachopo—specifically the house-made special doused in a creamy, black pepper cabrales cheese sauce that takes the classic crispy-fried steak recipe to new heights.
This sidrería (cider restaurant) is popular among locals and tourists alike, who come to enjoy the lively barroom atmosphere. Cider is poured from a great height, and traditional, family-style Asturian fare like fabada and tablas (cheese and charcuterie boards) are ideal for sharing. The walls are the curved staves of large wooden cider barrels, which, combined with the stone floors, provide a rustic ambience. A deli in front of the shop sells vacuum-packed cold cuts and cheese to go.
