What people eat in Canarias when they eat well.

Quesos de cabra isleños

Majorero and Palmero, with PDO; smoked or cured to taste.

Plátano de Canarias

Small, sweet and speckled; with its own PGI.

Markets and local produce

Almost every village has its market day and its producers: the cheesemaker, the baker, the vegetable garden next door. Ask at the tourist office or the bar on the square; they'll tell you where to buy straight from the maker.

We haven't confirmed El Tanque's market day. Every village has its own: better to ask than to make it up.
