Gourmets insist that authentic Asturian fabes can only be prepared in Asturias, and nowhere else. And the beans have to be plump Granja beans, and Granja beans alone – grown only on a farm within the Principality of Asturias – not even in neighboring León.

As a matter of fact, the most famous restaurant to serve fabada is La Machina – and it doesn’t even have a sign. Everybody (who is anybody) knows! We drove around for an hour outside the capitol of Oviedo looking for it, and kept passing it by. You can identify it by the miniature model of La Machina (Railroad locomotive) hanging on a sign post.

What a hearty feast we hand when we arrived!
