In the northern region of Spain called Galicia, there are plenty of amazing gastronomic contributions that the region has given to the rest of the country. Padron peppers, octopus, empanadas, and more, to name a few.
Because of the climate and the large fishing industry at its doorstep, restaurants like Maruja Limon are lucky enough to get the best quality ingredients, have a Michelin star even, but not charge you an arm and a leg for it. If you want an amazing culinary experience, you have to go to Maruja Limon.
The restaurant has been open for 18 years now, and to celebrate this accomplishment, they are currently doing a menu that is based on past menus through the years. With every dish, you can even see the year that it was served right next to it, which is such a cool way to feel a part of history.
The dishes themselves utilize the best local ingredients, including top of the line seafood and fish, cooked to perfection in eclectic presentation and accompaniments. One of the best dishes is a scallop paired with a fillet of pork so tender and flavorful it will be hard to eat anything afterward.
