Casa Asterio
La Galga · Puntallana · La Palma
Opening hours: from 13:00
A traditional La Palma eatery in La Galga, in an old building with wooden balconies by the road. People come here for the classics: grilled cheese with green mojo, chicharrones with gofio, chickpea stew, goat, rabbit with mojo or ribs with potatoes and corn, and for dessert a bienmesabe or a príncipe Alberto. Generous portions and village prices, five minutes from the Cubo de La Galga: the perfect stop after the walk.
