Culler de Pau

O Grove is a peninsula with stunning coves of fine white sand that overlooks the entrance to the Arousa estuary dotted with shellfish beds. This is the setting for Culler de Pau, in a valley full of cornfields and small orchards, where chef Javier Olleros has his family home and where he runs this business with his wife Amaranta Rodríguez, with an ethos that is underpinned by concerns about issues such as obesity, the climate crisis and the fast food culture. In the minimalist-style dining room, adorned with stunning works of sculpture that showcase the inner light that shines within us, discover “zero-mile” cooking on three menus (Ronsel, Marexada and Descuberta) that reflect a commitment to the environment and to the Atlantic. Culler de Pau has its own vegetable garden, hence its desire for guests to share in the immediate pleasure of tasting herbs and other produce that has just been harvested and which form the basis of its aromatic soups. We absolutely loved the Xoio dish, which captures the landscape, the climate and the essence of the place!
