Antes de un iniciar el paseo por la ruta de los alcornocales y la ermita de Santa Lucía del Trampal, unos churros y un café en este establecimiento, para coger fuerza. Los churros están buenos. A mi no me repitieron durante la ruta: 18 kilómetros.

Su nombre, ahora, es churrería María. Te sirven todo lo rápido que pueden, casi siempre con una sonrisa. Las porras recién hechas. Las tostadas, en un pan crujiente, tienen una larga lista para satisfacer el paladar más exigente. Qué gusto. Gracias.
