Another day, another food festival, but same old problem – poor advertising photography! Maybe, it’s just me, but I don’t really find this picture very appealing and it certainly wouldn’t attract me into joining the party. Whether you actually like lacón con grelos is another thing, but suffice to say that here in Galicia it s considered a bit of a local delicacy. The lacon (cured ham) I can just about manage to eat, but the grelos (the leaves of a turnip) I find quite stringy and bitter. It’s all just a matter of personal taste.

By the way, just in case you were wondering, Cuntis is the place where the festival is being held. I will not be rushing there…..
