The El Barranquillo restaurant is an obligatory meeting point for those who appreciate local produce, fresh Tenerife pork and good local wine. The meat comes from a family-run pig farm and the wine is home-made. The restaurant has its own wine-press and wine-cellar and has the help and advice of a team of wine experts who contribute to making the wine so smooth and full-bodied. El Barranquillo's culinary speciality is grilled pork and chicken although the cod in onions is equally tasty.

Dining
The local gastronomy is a further example of Tenerife’s authenticity and certainly the most delicious. Dishes made from local produce create a marvellous fusion between traditional and avant-garde. Tenerife's traditional cuisine revolves around the abundant resources of the sea, with an emphasis on fish and seafood. What is more, the island's culinary heritage is inspired by South American countries, such as Venezuela and the Caribbean. The island's gastronomy is characterized by its simplicity, prioritizing locally-sourced products like fish, potatoes, pork and cheeses.
