One of the highlights of visiting Gijón is experiencing the delicious Asturian cuisine. Try the famous fabada asturiana, a hearty bean stew with pork, or sample the local seafood dishes like pulpo a la gallega (Galician-style octopus) and chipirones en su tinta (baby squid in ink sauce). Don't forget to pair your meal with a glass of sidra (Asturian cider), a traditional drink of the region. Explore the local markets and taverns to discover the authentic flavors of Gijón.
