One Star: High quality cooking

If creative cuisine that showcases the island’s culinary history appeals to you, this restaurant located at the luxury Villa Cortés hotel is a must. It is overseen by chef Diego Schattenhofer (an Argentinian chef who has spent the past two decades in the Canary Islands); His cooking is defined by the phrase “we don’t create recipes, we create emotions” and is showcased on two tasting menus (Roque Guincho and Roque de Arona Hío) on which Canary Island cooking is 100% present in every dish (shrimp OA, “tableta” of fish from our coastal waters with sweet potato borrallera, black pork royale etc). Each dish is accompanied by an information card that details the ingredients used along with a map of the island highlighting the exact location where they are sourced. Key attributes here are flavour, consistency, strong technique and a multi-faceted team (marine biologists, neurologists, historians etc) which has revisited the culinary roots of the native Guanche people. The restaurant has a particular penchant for dry-aged fish, while the trolley of Canary Island cheeses (with over 50 varieties) is a particular highlight!
