Casseroles made with fresh produce are common. Pastas and pulses and garlic are widely used in Spanish cooking. Fresh herbs are also carefully used a great deal, giving the simply cooked recipes wonderful flavours. The commonest Canarian meals tend to be a fresh salad starter, served with small sausages, or beans, fresh bread and sauces. Deserts are international and varied.
Good wines are cheap and available everywhere.
Local 'Canarian' restaurants are still far cheaper than most other countries of Europe. Fish, Rabbit, Chicken and other meats are widely available and excellent, especially when combined with the local sauces and wines. For the less adventurous, the usual fast food restaurants such as Macdonald's and KFC exist. If you can, hire a car and seek out one of the many restaurants in more remote areas - you will be rewarded with the most memorable food and wine. Spanish Restaurants we enjoy and can recommend Meat.
