LA SIDRA.- The first edition of PulpoPasión Asturies is already running, the first gastronomic route based on octopus recipes, which is taking place from June 8 to 24. A total of 49 restaurants, cider bars, bars and grocery stores will offer dishes and menus, both traditional and cutting-edge cuisine, with the octopus as the protagonist.

The main objective of this initiative is to promote the country’s gastronomy, making known the multiple possibilities offered by this product. For this, PulpoPasión Asturies has the participation and collaboration of fifty shops, restaurants, cider bars, companies and institutions throughout Asturies, in an area that covers the entire central area and extends from Tinéu to Cangues d’Onís.

So that we can enjoy octopus in all its aspects, PulpoPasión offers the possibility to choose between “snack + albariño wine glass”, “plate + 2 albariño wine glasses” or “menu + albariño wine bottle”. The  prices range between 4.50 and 19 euros, and the plate option ranges between 12 and 25 euros. The full menu, 28 euros.
