So like I don't eat them all the time.
But sometimes the situation demands it.
Walking by a window, and seeing a line. Then the smell. And I head back and look again. So good just waiting for me.
My favorite is the Napolitana. I searched for a picture but no bueno. I am not good with names...

Thread 'The Practical Guide of the Camino Olvidado from Bilbao -Summer 2026'
I did this Camino in 2018, 2019,2022, 2024 and 2026. I personally update the guide each time. None of it is copied. This year I did it in the opposite direction, from the CAMINO FRANCES to BILBAO. The first four times I never saw another pilgrim. This year there was an average of 2 or 3 every day. Contact the accommodation a few days before your stay. GPS tracks or the stages on your Phone ARE ESSENTIAL. WITH THIS GUIDE YOU CAN DO TOO. Cheers, Mick...- omicko
