looking for in our many trips and visiting forgotten places, we had to improvise a few times and search any premises where supplies and regain strength. If you do not know the area, finding a place to eat or where to buy a good wine can become the real adventure of our trip. Sometimes successes and find an oasis in the midst of the most unknown city where we serve quality food and a stock with which to cool the throat at a reasonable price for the days they run. However, most of the time, we often fall into clubs where you serve the salad seasoned with fish (with its consequent taste sour fish), they charge you the bread nor have asked not appear in the letter or when you order your account you realize that not only gasoline is the price of gold. So we decided to put our experience in some places we've gone to and focus on those who surely return to visit to enjoy some of their delicacies. It is because our personal experience and selfless and we have never claimed nor do we intend for the comments and places here mentioned.
begins here the first installment of oasis in the middle of oblivion and we do Verín area in the province of Ourense. There are several entries that we have to forgotten places near this city, such as spas and Caldeliñas Requeixo , and not forget that Verin is the city of water.
A Galician dish par excellence and for all we know is the most famous octopus. This dish is composed of octopus in the cooking just right so that it can be the most tender and seasoned with paprika, olive oil and salt. This seems so easy but it sure has proven more than one "other octopus", which seems more like a boomer gum flavored with a whiff of fish rather reminiscent of a sea place stuck in a fish of a clean ocean and fresh.
Well if you want an octopus will delight in the authentic, we find it in "casa do octopus" . And the atmosphere invites you to eat. Wooden tables with benches of the same material are arranged in a dining room / tavern that came pleasantly. Do not forget the cachelos, potatoes cooked with the same condiments that the octopus (paprika, salt and oil). Although a food critic would throw their hands are the head, place broth and stresses that we, and many of the guests accompany our octopus, is the house red. A dense red reminiscent of those made homemade wine stale. 
For you do not like the octopus meat can ask caldeiro year. One type of cooked meat with a taste of what we could call "people." Nor is there more to choose from, the place specializes in these two courses and not to serve or not serve coffee. It is a detail that seems more than adequate, as it allows the tables are not kept busy more time on the account, and what the hell, the coffee is good take a couple of streets above, in a pedestrian street where there several bars, where they will make the digestion and enjoy the quiet streets of Verin. The typical dishes of the area are more crucial test and if there is anything more delicious than a well prepared and tasty dish is one that is also abundant and cheap.
Maybe someone thinks it is a dream or only with the famous Delorian back to the future that would allow us to travel back in time we could find a place to eat quantity, quality and prices that seem "of when the peseta." Well, this place exists and not far from Verin, yes, to enjoy it we have to go to neighboring Portugal. This place is called "Pot O ' in Chaves, where the sign and tells you who are specialists in" sopa da pedra. Do not be afraid for your dentures, the broth is rather a kind of soupy stew but dense with plenty of chunks of meat and other vegetables. A dish more than recommended to whet your appetite and prepare the stomach for the next dish. A council in the letter you will see several entrees at prices that would make us all think they are rations for one person. If you want, follow my advice and order a main dish for two. You'll come out more than satisfied. We usually ask for the "post to or pot." A piece of XXL grilled meat, seasoned with a little minced garlic in just enough and served with its own juice and oil. If you like cheese, the post of the house is the same but with the dairy over. 
The meat also comes with a small simple salad (lettuce, tomato and onion) and an abundance of authentic French fries (sometimes roasted can also order them). I do not like to talk about price because obviously everything changes as life becomes more expensive, but I can assure you that prices here are the same for at least 3 or 4 years. We could say that eating at a diner here on average, "or pot" eat two. Cod is also a delight and, like the flesh, XXL and I recommend you to try your cream cheese as a snack next to the top. To drink, a super bock beer "sem alcohol" for leading and we all know the risks of having drunk driving (both risk the high probability of making an accident as the risk that your card removed several items, pocket money until you fall imprisonment. The authorities take seriously the good circulation and, although the borders 
disappeared long ago, it is not uncommon to find law enforcement officers at the old customs.) In short, a place to repeat, good service, abundant and quality. In addition, a few meters further down, you have a couple of stores where you can buy the famous Portuguese and other memorabilia towels and utensils. Ah! from Chaves id Verin to pay attention to speed limits as it passes through several passages and Portugal did not warn of radar as well as in Spain. Last but never ruled out extending the list, I will quote a roadside restaurant that few know the secret locked in her gourmet kitchen.
Gudiña is a population that probably will spend to get to Verin. We have gone through it to reach the fantastic spa dropouts mondon , the mines of the Nazis in Casaio and some others. In these cases, we have never refused to return the stop and taste the roasted ham that make the hotel restaurant "Swiss." Do not be fooled by the name and think that this is a theme restaurant. Nothing further, yes, the bar is a typical roadside bar with its peculiar environment. We also ask us for a plate of the aforementioned ham (not the serrano ham refers to meat that comes from that part of pork) roast, which make you rich and watered with their juices, we ask a few brave, which we can dress it with hot sauce offered there (do not forget to ask if he will not take). The price of the dish with beer or other drink is more than reasonable and I assure you that if you have not tried before, the less you will be surprised. If you wish to take you too can make a great snack with tasty meat. below the map with the locations of places mentioned. I have included two wineries where you can buy good wines of the appellation of origin of Monterrey. Of these wines do not rule out more and to comment if you have time, you can not go to visit the medieval city of Monterrey. In short you can see some photos and the entry of the visit we made to this picturesque village.
I hope you find it helpful. Greetings!
