Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, has been awarded its sixth Michelin Star following the launch of the new Michelin Star Guide for Spain and Portugal. The celebration of this newest culinary achievement reinforces the island’s growing reputation as a paradise for fine food lovers.
Mr. Carlos Alonso, president of the island council of Tenerife, stated, “Our cuisine had reached unimaginable levels only a few years ago. In recent times, the progress we have experienced, thanks to the joint effort of the public and private sector, has been enormous for the island, and proof of this is the fact that our gastronomy has been recognised with a new star.”
Tenerife, which is the only island in the Canary Islands to have restaurants with Michelin Stars, boasts an authentic cuisine that is blessed with an array of intoxicating flavours, made possible by the island’s year-round spring climate and fertile land. In addition, its local products and ingredients including fish, bananas, potatoes, cheese and honey are used with traditional cooking methods to create innovative culinary creations to delight locals and visitors alike.
