Mediterranean cuisine restaurants San Cristóbal De La Laguna

In 2006, Martín, Extremeño himself, brought a little of his native land to open this grocery store, which also serves as a tasting point. Very well sourced, many products come from Jerez de los caballeros, near Badajoz, and will allow you to taste hams, chorizos, lomos and especially lomitos, one of the main products of the place. Or on the cheese side, the torta del casar, a sheep's cheese with a melting heart, and even the Canary Islands speciality, the guia flower, mixing cow's and sheep's milk and unique cheese using the thistle flower as a coagulant. It can be accompanied by a good selection of extreme wines such as Habla el silencio, a Trujillo wine, which sits in one of the corners of this warm shop or on the small terrace on the pretty square of La Concepción. Not to mention building a gourmet basket before leaving: jams, plasencia vinegar, vera pepper, etc.

In a typical bodega setting, it's the ideal restaurant to try all the Canarian dishes, such as Canarian soups. Bodegon Viana is always full, as it's very popular with the locals. Great atmosphere. One menu, but you can also try the house specialties à la carte. You can, for example, try morcilla, a kind of black pudding also eaten on the peninsula, but in the Canaries it's filled with dried fruit and tastes like gingerbread. Good value and hearty portions.
