Cuisine
The cuisine in Vigo, and Galicia, in general, is undoubtedly one of the richest and most varied in the world. The high standard of the food is based on selecting only the best quality raw materials which are then carefully prepared. Our shellfish, fish, meat and vegetables served up with wines and cheeses make for a varied and delicious menu.
In Galicia traditional and modern cooking methods combine and are complementary, and in Vigo you can find everything from haute cuisine to more traditional taverns.
For those who enjoy more traditional cooking, there are places serving food all over Vigo. In O Berbés, the old fishing area where the fish market is located, there are lots of typical fish restaurants, near hear, also in the Old Quarter, we discover the famous streets "calle de las ostras" (Pescadería street) and "calle del pulpo" (Laxe street), where we can taste oysters and octupus "in situ", two of the most typical products in the city.
Vigo also has a great range of haute cuisine and international restaurants with specialities from all over the world to suit all tastes: Indian/Pakistani, Chinese, Italian, and many more.
