Half of the fish, served with cabbage and THE most excellent boiled potato.   If only I could bring home a bag of these Galician potatoes..you cannot imagine how much better they are than any potato I have eaten before.....   Only those in Lanzarote come remotely close...but these are more flavorful.

After filleting, our waiter scooped off the meaty bits from the skeleton, saying these were among the best parts.  He was right!!!

A trio of longueirones--larger than any razor clams I've seen, and with a more intense flavor.   I did sample local, tinned  razor clams in a wonderful food shop in O"Grove and they were some of the best tinned seafood I'd tried....ever.    No sauce needed..just a bit of toasted bread, or just eat them plain.

Front dining room on a Saturday night about 9pm; there is also a rear dining room where I think the many VIPs are seated.

Notice the holes in their perfect dark bread; there were also raisin-studded slices but those were snatched up before I had even fighting chance to take one bite.  Galician bakers turn out some of the best breads I've sampled in Spain.

Starter:  A complimentary bowl of Caldo Gallego with a base of veal bones.   This might be the richest and most delicious consommé I have ever tasted.

Owner Alberto Domingo, known as Berto, a most welcoming host.  He not only remembered what we ordered last week, but he remember what I had ordered during our one meal here last May!!!  The restaurant specializes in the finest and largest specimens of shellfish caught in nearby waters (see Wine Spectator article, linked, above)

Closeup of the Isla de la Toxa, off O"Grove and close to both Pontevedra and Cambados.   On Sunday we will drive to Padron, inland, for lunch before returning to our La Toxa hotel.

Portion of the Rias Baixas area of Galicia.  The "Rias" are the inlets that pierce the coast from the Atlantic Ocean and give Galicia an extraordinarily long length of coastline.

Those marvelous Galician potatoes, dusted with smoked paprika, served with my half of the Dover sole (It's "languado" here, with no mention of the name Dover, but it is the same fish, that bears as astronomical price in the US IF you can find it.

Closeup of the artichoke dish; why are there so few great artichoke dishes offered at restaurants in New York City?  They are either those huge Globe artichokes, stuffed with bread crumbs, or thinly sliced, fried, and salted.

Exterior of BEIRAMAR restaurant, facing the port; while we were eating, a fisherman and a shellfish gatherer entered the restaurant to drop off part of their daily haul, emptying bogavante (type of lobster) right into the large tank

Those working the waters in Galicia command a respect that I  do not believe is shared in the USA.

The shellfish gatherers of the Ria de Arousa region are much lauded here, as this handsome sculpture attests.   At the parking lot, we were approached by a few people selling boat trips on the Ria (inlet) with all-you-can-eat mussels.  My partner does not eat anything "with black shells," but I have four more days to turn his opinion!!!  A boat trip would be lovely!!  It's in the high 80sF today, Tuesday....
