The tour, with a taste of 3 different Albarino wines costs 4e each, but add a couple of seafood conserves to try it out with and that increases to 8e. We were the only ones that did this and felt slightly greedy, but it was worthwhile.
And it was good to have company on the tour in the form of Bill and Ali from America. The tour guide had excellent English but it was nice to chat with this nice young couple like the naughty kids at the back of the class.
We walked from there back down to the coast road to the East of Sanxenxo to the large beach, Praia de Areas that we had sailed past several times.
We met an English speaking Spanish couple who recommended to us the A Postonia restaurant. “Just keep walking that way”.
However it took a while to get there, and on the way, faint with hunger, we stumbled across Restaurante El Espigon. This sits beneath a hotel, with a superb terrace overlooking the lovely beach. It turned out that we were just a couple of hundred metres short of of O Postonia, but we didn’t live to regret giving up our quest.
We had another superb meal including mixed salad, a grilled lobster, a large ray wing in a light pimento sauce with potatoes and superb desserts. We ordered 3 glasses of wine between us but the owner, a truly amazing host, managed to sneak the rest of the bottle into our glasses when we weren’t looking.
And the bill was another nice surprise. The Rias are truly a seafood lover’s paradise. We walked home along this and adjoining beaches reflecting on another memory bank day.
