Vegueta

Sunday, May 13th, 2007
If you are here on the isle, and you're planing to take a trip to Las Palmas, i would highly recomend you the 'old part' of the city, Vegueta. In this beautiful area, which is being renewed to be only pedestrian, you can find the market of Vegueta and several restaurants in which you can enjoy typical canarian food. I personally would recomend you "El Herreño". The streets of Vegueta are very beautiful, have a look: Vegueta, Gran Canarias' spirit. Vegueta, Gran Canarias' spirit. Vegueta, Gran Canarias' spirit. Vegueta, Gran Canarias' spirit. You can also find in Vegueta, the "house of Columbus" which is a museum about Chistopher Columbus.

12 grapes

Sunday, December 31st, 2006
You were probably saying: what?? 12 grapes?? No, i'm not crazy. As a, not only canarian but, entirely spanish tradition we celebrate the countdown to the new year in a very particular way. The last 12 gongs, from normally a tower-clock, of the year when it gets 0:00 are ment to be accompained with a sigle grape with every gong. It normally broadcasted live on TV from the "Puerta del Sol" in Madrid, but since we have it one hour later, it's normally done from a local church with tower-clock. It has its origin 1909 from wine growers who celebrated a good years harvest and is now one of the most deeply rooted habits. You'd be probably tired of hearing this today and i don't want to be the one to miss this chance to get on your nerves too. :D A big hug for everybody, and have a !!! HAPPY NEW YEAR ...

Le Petit Lyonnaise

Sunday, December 24th, 2006
This might not sound very spanish nor canarian for you, and actually it isn't. Though, i'm gonna post about it anyway since i think it is really worth to mention. I've just arrived from having dinner at a french restaurant and i must say "wow!" It's name, like the posts title, is "Le Petit Lyonnaise" and is located in the "Aparthotel Doñana" in "Patalavaca", which is in the municipality of Mogan, right after "Arguineguin". It is a small restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere and views to Hotel/Appartment complex "Anfi Del Mar". Since its opening hours are daily from 17:00 onwards its really nothing but a dinig restaurant with views of the "Anfi" bay at night, which is really cool. The food was exellent and very well presented, in some kind of what seemed to me like "nouvelle cuisine" style. One of the reasons i took some pictures you might want ...
