Mariscada Day in Spain

Mariscada - seafood is a preparation that includes various types of seafood. It is very common in the coastal cuisine of Galicia and its popularity is such that it can be found in other areas of the Spanish coast such as Asturias, Cantabria, the Basque Country, Catalonia, the Valencian Community, Murcia and Andalusia.

Think of Mariscada as a Mexican stew that is heavily influenced by Spanish and Portuguese cooking. Una buena mariscada para una persona puede costar en torno a 130 o 140 euros, con un vino normal. Para hacernos una idea de la diferencia entre la ría de Vigo y Formentera, cada ostra cuesta 8 euros en el Molí de Sal, mientras en Arcade la misma ostra cuesta poco más de 2 euros.
