Teguise, like the rest of Lanzarote, offers a delicious array of traditional Canarian dishes. The town’s cuisine is heavily influenced by the island’s agricultural products and fresh seafood. One of the must-try dishes is papas arrugadas, or wrinkled potatoes, served with the island’s famous mojo sauces – a red or green sauce made with peppers, garlic, and olive oil.
Fresh fish and seafood are central to the local diet, with grilled fish, octopus, and caldereta (a traditional seafood stew) being popular choices. Teguise also offers plenty of options for sampling Lanzarote’s wine, especially the locally-produced Malvasia, which pairs beautifully with the town’s traditional cuisine.
For those looking to experience the town’s food culture, the Sunday market is a great place to try local delicacies. There are also many traditional restaurants in the town center where visitors can enjoy authentic Canarian dishes in a relaxed, charming atmosphere.
