What to expect
You'll start at Plaza de Lugo, where a foodie local will steer you towards the best stalls and introduce you to vendors—particularly the fishmongers who know Galicia's seafood inside out. Expect to ask questions and pick up honest talk about what's seasonal and why. Once you've gathered your shopping, you'll walk minutes to a small kitchen in the city centre. Here you'll work together to prepare lunch from your haul, learning technique and getting a feel for Galician cooking without pretence. Lunch is unhurried; you eat what you've cooked with wine, beer, and coffee included.
