What to do and see in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia: The Best Food & Drink

July 16, 2021 Darleen Reid

If you see nothing else in this World Heritage city, you simply must visit the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, an awe-inspiring confection of baroque architecture. Once you’ve regained composure, head out on a bicycle to see the rest of this glorious city. Foodies and boozehounds will delight in a guided gastronomy tour, while modernists will enjoy the Galician Center of Contemporary Art.

Magic moment to rediscover and revisit Saint James Délicatesses in 2020 while our arrival after 1800km Camino, few years later. Lovely times, and congratulations to the continuous years quality of work from local cheeses to wines and passing by the talents of the masterchief pastries such the Santiago Tarta del Amendra, the Saint-James pie with its coat of arms we were delighted and astonished by a warm welcome. Perfect service and Chief smile and knowledge of Santiago. Happy Sharing-Happy Outside
