Traditional cuisine. Strong portions. It is next to the lighthouse, its greatest charm. Specialty in escaldón and fresh fish.
Going to eat a fish broth becomes a ritual when you put the car in gear and embark on an adventure. At the head of the kitchen, Nelson Espinel. His secret is simple: the best genre.
The broth is served in the same cauldron and, just when it is cooked, a mixture of garlic, cumin and salt is added and left to rest. All accompanied by a escaldón with mixed gofio, mojo sauce and raw onion.
It is recommended to order it before and arrive hungry. Afterwards, take a bath in one of the coves that are in the surroundings.
