Asturias is famous for its seafood, such as fresh squid, crab, shrimp, and sea bass. You should try Salmon caught in the Asturian rivers. Also, don’t miss a chance to enjoy Spicy mussels, a traditional dish from Asturias. The mussels are steamed and smothered in a spicy red sauce made from garlic, spicy paprika, flour, and olive oil. Another dish to try is the Asturias version of the fish stew — Caldereta Asturiana. It contains a variety of seafood, usually rockfish, lobster and crab. These are cooked with garlic, fresh tomato, white wine and parsley.

The northern routes of St. James's Way have been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The region has four different routes, all with their own beauty and uniqueness. These pilgrimage routes to Santiago have a modernised network of pilgrim's lodgings, so this is a perfect place to enjoy the warm welcome of the Asturians architecture and delicious cuisine.

You can find an extraordinary array of Asturias cheeses, meats, and sweets on the El Fontan market and surrounding shops. If you come there on Friday, you will see the flower sellers. On Sunday there are folk groups and dancers, so you can enjoy the traditional music and even hear the bagpipes.
