Galician cuisine is quite different from what you would expect to find in Spain, it also has some Portuguese influence due to their proximity. On the menu expect to find a lot of seafood and hearty stews. Here are a few delicious examples for you to try out: Empanadas Gallega may remind you a little of a samosa, it is a crunchy pastry usually filled with onions, garlic, peppers, paprika combined with meat or seafood. Pulpo a la Gallega, is a simple dish of boiled octopus cut in to pieces served with olive oil and smoked paprika, these delicious tender pieces melt in your mouth. Caldo Gallega is a dish eaten most typically during the colder months. This tasty stew consists of pork, chorizo, potatoes, white beans and greens. If you are looking for something sweet then try the Tarta de Santiago, this dense but moist dessert is made with almonds, flour, eggs and sugar. This sweet treat is usually finished off on top with powdered sugar in the shape of the famous cross of St. James.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
