The Canarian Islands is a collaboration of seven islands and is considered a top class destination when it comes to wine enthusiasts. Their unique cuisine was influenced thru the years by many cultures such as Latin America, the Guanches (natives) and many more. Each island has a different nature when it comes to traditions and cuisine, yet all of them are oriented on tourism and hold large production lines of bananas, wines, sugar cones and exotic fruits.
Bananas are considered as a main ingredient in the canarios diet, while it is often served friend or made in tarts, served with rice eggs or meat sauce. The sub-tropical climate of the islands has varied glebe and volcanic landscapes, creating this way the perfect grounds for vineyards. The famous sweet wine Malmsey is produced in Lanzarote in the volcanic fields and is the pride of these lands.
All the recipes of the Canaria Islands are mostly age-old and traditional ones practiced by modern restaurants for the purpose of creating fresh and authentic dishes and delivering a fine dining experience submerged in quality. The most known recipes are the papas arrugades (stew), mojo sauces, sancocho canarios (fish), tapas and bienmesabe (almond cream). Every flavour is unique and delightful.
Top venues for exquisite dishes are scattered all over the islands but are worth looking for if you are eager to try them. Some of the best ones are Casa Tagoro,Tasca Tiernas del Sur, Restaurante Grill Toro Bravo, Casa Rafa Restaurant de Mar and Mana 264. Each of them offer original dining experiences garnished with traditions and festive atmosphere.
