Dining
Surrounded by the ocean, it's no surprise that fish and seafood play a leading role in the island's menu. Nevertheless, they are far from the only ingredients in Canarian cuisine. You must try the local speciality ropa vieja (resembling parrotfish), but also keep an eye out for conejo en salmorejo (rabbit in spicy sauce) and cabrito (young goat). These are served with papas arrugadas (potatoes boiled in sea salt) and a variety of mojos (sauces) made from oil, vinegar, garlic, cumin, red pepper and green coriander. Very flavourful!
