We have two rules about food when traveling: if there’s a line, get in it - and - if there’s a fat cat on the property, something yummy awaits. This place did not disappoint. The smoked trout is fantastic. The greens tasted liked the were picked that day. And the cat was delightfully fat and friendly. We enjoyed fresh apple cake for dessert. Worth a visit! We caught our hosts at 11am while they were turning over the Albergue. Thank you for accommodating our early lunch!
