Eating in Teverga

Eating in Teverga

The small council of Teverga has a very abrupt landscape, which counts with a Romanic and Prehistoric essence inside of an amazing nature. Along with this beautiful landscape you will be able to enjoy the Asturian gastronomy, with elaborated dishes made at the tevergano style.

If you are visiting the region, you will have to eat in Teverga the pote tevergano, typical of the council that has the same name as it, and elaborated with the classic Asturian fabes with cabbage and copango (blood sausage, bacon, shoulder ham). You can also enjoy some other combitanitons such as the fabes with wild boar or with hare. Try the pan de escanda (a rustic wheat produced in the hill zones) with a great nutritive value and very recommendable, specially for those who are allergic to wheat.

Great quesos de bota y fuente (cheese), called like that due to the lamb skin where the milk is fermented, of artisan elaboration and almost extinct. Try the delicious local recipes during the gastronomy journeys, such as the ones from Winer and Fall. During those, walk around the council and taste its creations that go from the picadillo (sausage) to the trips in the winter to the lamb stew in the Spring.

To complete this experience, don’t miss the opportunity of trying the delicious cider of Asturias with D.O.P.. The tevergano menu will not be complete without the typic desserts from the council, such as the rice pudding or the almond colineta, a local pie that tastes like marzipan.

If you go to the Taberna de Narciso you will find some great tapas. An excellent selection of drinks to enjoy with the tapeo and great recipes such as the mushrooms, the fried chorizo pincho and the torreznos. A tavern more than 170 years old that features a very nice service. They close on Mondays.

On the other hand, La Tasquina is a very charming winery. Taste their stuffed bollinos that will be served along with your drink, as you seat inside of the stone walls.

Between the numerous places you can enjoy in this town named a Model Village of Asturias in 2013, we recommend La Chabola (2,5km away), known for their quality, generous portions and great service. They have a daily menu and some good tapas. The cachopo and the wild boar rice will also surprise you.

On the other hand, the restaurant from the hotel Casa Manolo will allow you to order a menu that features the typical dishes you should eat in Tevergas: pote tevergano, fabada, grilled lamb… Homemade dishes, better than the ones your grandmother cooks. Delicious!
