Restaurante La Tegala
Tradition meets modernism
When approaching the restaurant La
Tegala in Mácher you will recognize the
exceptional award winning architecture
of the building concept. An old Canarian
house was converted with modern
parts into a building that maintains
the tradition whilst including modern
influences.
The same concept runs through the
whole place. The inside decor as well
as the dishes offered are a reflection
of Canarian traditions, but always
mixed with a modern touch. Antonio
Hernández, owner of La Tegala, knows
the tradition of the Canarian cuisine very
well, for over 20 years he has run the
very popular restaurant La Era in Yaiza.
In his new restaurant he implements
all his experience in a smaller, more
exquisite and modern frame in search
of a Canarian cuisine with class. “The
kitchen has latest modern standards
and we are able to control the process
of cooking, up to the last detail. Cooking
with constant 60 degrees contains the
structure of the produce, for example
our lamb is cooked in the oven for 14
hours” explains Antonio.
Talking with Antonio you will notice very
quickly that he is a passionate fan of
“good cuisine”. His strong desire to create
something special has achieved that,
the dishes of La Tegala have established
themselves as a new quality mark on the
island. A mention in the new edition of
the internationally known gastronomy
guide Michelin is the best proof of that
achievement. But whilst offering high
quality the most important baselines of
popular cooking were not forgotten: the
guest has to be satisfied and decoration
is only meant to decorate the dishes.
Next to the spectacular dinning area
with astonishing views to Fuerteventura
La Tegala also offers smaller and more
5 / Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
intimate rooms as well as a bodega which
was constructed in the old water tank of
the house. Here Antonio stores over 130
different sorts of wine and the room can
be rented for special occasions.
Look out during your excursions on
the island for the small village of
Mácher and for sure you will see the
spectacular building of La Tegala. A
visit is highly recommended, dishes as
rabbit salmorejo from La Palma, cooked
lamb with honey or the fish stew with
gofio present the classic ingredients of
the Canarian cuisine in a modern and
tasteful environment.

Bodega Stratvs
Discover the unique
wine culture of Lanzarote
B
odega Stratvs is the youngest and most modern bodega in the spectacular
wine region of La Geria. It has been founded as homage to the wine farmer of
the island and their unique form of planting grapes on Lanzarote, the bodega
has managed in a short period of time to be very symbolic to the island. The quality of
the wines is reflected by the numerous awards it has received won in competitions.
In the bodega tradition and innovation are well balanced and during a visit you get
the opportunity to get to learn a lot about the history of wine in Lanzarote and at
the same time see the modern technical equipment of the bodega. The easiest way
to do this is to book a guided visit, available daily. During the one hour tour you
will be given detailed information about the production process of wine, starting
from the very special way of planting to the harvest and following production. Not
forgetting the opportunity to taste the different wines of the bodega. The guided
visits are available in different languages, booking in advance is recommended.
But that is by far not everything that the Bodega Stratvs has to offer. On the first
glance you will notice the care and love for detail that was involved in the whole
construction process of the bodega. Right in the heart of the naturally protected wine
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/6
region La Geria you will find a wonderful
terrace that invites to stay and taste
the different wines. The kitchen offers
typical tapas from the island, a superb
goat cheese from the near by village of
Uga and many other exquisite dishes.
The gourmet shop offers special gourmet
products of the Canarian Islands and,
mainland Spain: exquisite wine, cheese
and chosen delicacies that pass the high
quality standard of the house.
The complete concept of the Bodega
Stratvs, the respect for natural and
traditional values and the strong
intention to lead the culture of wine
on Lanzarote into a positive future
are absolutely necessary to protect
this worldwide unique landscape. The
admiration for the work of the wine
farmers and the perfect integration of
this modern company in a protected
surrounding underline this philosophy.

Rancho Texas Park
A pleasure for the whole family
I
n Puerto del Carmen you will find the biggest recreational park of Lanzarote and
during a visit you can expect to see a variety of shows as well as an impressive
range of different types of animals over a large area. This well designed and
beautifully kept site invites you to stay the whole day and if you return in the evening
you can also have a lot of fun.
The main attractions of the more than 50.000 square metre park are for sure the
three different animal shows. In the birds of prey show you can see eagles from
north America, big vultures and a lot of other birds in a flying display that gives you
the unique opportunity to see these animals as close as never before. During the 20
minute show the impressive birds will fly right over your head and you will also see
how they hunt and fish.
During the sea lions show in the big open air pool you will see different acrobatic
tricks of these friendly animals. Rings are collected in the water, big jumps are
performed and everybody gets the opportunity to see the sea lions face to face and
make some great photos with them.
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 10
The funny highlight of the shows, and
especially popular among children, is
the Parrots and cockatoos show that you
can see in the restaurant of the park. The
colourful parrots show their intelligence
resolving complicated mathematical
tasks and also their ability to do a lot of
human things like driving cars, playing
basket ball, riding bicycles or on roller
skates. Every task is solved by the birds
with great skill and to the great delight
of the crowd.
But the shows are only a small part of
all the things that Rancho Texas Park
has to offer. More then 50 different
species of animals in authentic habitats
can be seen. In the opera house you will
hear the constant chorus of songbirds,
in the liliput-park kids can see a lot
of small animals such as baby goats
or small rabbits, American bison with
their extraordinary physique impress
everybody, in the gold mine the little
ones can search for treasures, and in
the many Indian tipis that you’ll find all
around the park you are welcome to relax
a little between the different attractions.
Two white tigers and a wide area with
pumas are among other highlights of
the visit. Between the visits you can dine
and get refreshments at the parks own
restaurant.
Next to the entertainment aspect, the
park also tries to spread a message among
the visitors: respect for nature and the
animals. The mixture of the Lanzarote
natural landscape and north American
animals creates an international context
that tries to show the importance of
nature and a respectful handling of the
animals, and this natural aspect is a high
valued addition to the offer the island
has to tourists.
At night the whole park becomes a
fantastic Wild-West show and while
enjoying the barbecue and free drinks
you will see a great show with live
country music. Take part in the Square
Dance and you’re guaranteed to have
fun!

Nippon Teppanyaki
The Japanese art of cuisine
T
he restaurant Teppanyaki Nippon is the oldest and most popular Japanese
restaurant in Lanzarote and right in the centre of the harbour in Puerto del
Carmen Tao and his wife Sinh invites you to a tasteful journey in the art of
Japanese cuisine. From Sushi to Sashimi or Tempura and the spectacular cooking
show on the teppanyaki-table you will find lots things to taste and enjoy.
The Teppanyaki Nippon has existed for over 12 years now and more and more
residents have begun to appreciate the fine tastes of the Japanese cuisine. At first
Japanese dishes were not very known in Lanzarote but quickly owner and chef Tao
convinced his guests with excellent quality. With new sushi variations Tao is always
good for a surprise and the use of Canarian ingredients as fresh fish of the island
or fruits as mango or papaya always offer new variations that you will not find
anywhere else.
The theory that Japanese cuisine automatically means raw fish was changed with
the installation of three big teppanyaki tables. This is a special way of preparing the
dishes, where the guests are seated around a big table with a quadratic cooking plate
in the centre. The cook prepares the fresh food, meat, fish or vegetables, directly in
front of the guests. So they can see the art of Tao while preparing the ingredients
and also get a good insight into Japanese cooking with all its sauces and special
preparations. Tao likes the direct contact with his guests on the table because it
allows him to ask how everybody likes their food to be prepared and at the same
time gives him the opportunity to comment and explain Japanese cooking.
For Sushi and Sashimi lovers, the restaurant offers a long list of classic Maki-rolls
as well as new, creative variations. Also you find a lot of fresh fish, directly out of
the Atlantic or freshly imported by plane from Madrid. Together with the essential
ingredients as Soya sauce, wasabi or ginger you can discover new tastes that does
not exist in the European cuisine. And we recommend everybody who is still sceptical
about sushi to try after a cooked plate a Mango Tango Roll, a Sesame Chicken Roll or
the original Sushi Pizza made by Tao. For sure a lot of people will be delighted by the
fine tastes and will try a different sushi on their next visit. For complete beginners in
the art of Japanese cuisine Tao offers some nicely prepared menus that are perfect
to try and discover new flavours.
Depending on the fresh produce that Tao can buy, you will also find some suggestions
of the day that show the creative side of Taos cooking. Spicy tuna tacos or Sushi with
Cherne are only some examples. When the nights are warm the restaurant has a
terrace with nice views over the harbour of Puerto del Carmen. And inside you find
Japanese elegancy, and either you can choose the communicative teppanyaki-table
or, if you like your dinner more intimate, one of the individual tables in the side
room.

A Bodega for your delight
A

some of the bodegas in La Geria.
Since 1981 the bodega El Chupadero

Arte de Lava
Passion for Art
There are many shops that offer pieces of art for sale. But only a small number of
them really see art as a basic part of their whole philosophy. In Arte de Lava in Playa
Blanca you will find one of these positive exceptions. Here art is combined with
passion and every work of art offered has its own history.
Arte de Lava is the shop of Giorgio Orefice, an Italian artist who fell in love with
Lanzarote. Here you find only works of art that have touched Giorgio in a personal
way. The most important part of Arte de Lava is for sure the classic oil paintings that
you can find in many styles and different motives. Arte de Lava works with a special
gallery that offers exclusive works of experienced Italian artists. The great technique,
as well as the mastery of the impressive paintings, demonstrates that experience
and you will be surprised at the interesting prices for them.
During a journey to the Sahara Giorgio Orefice got in contact with a local family that
produces wonderful, handmade tuareg-silver-jewellery. The family works in the old
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 20
traditional way of the country and every
single piece of jewellery has a meaning
and is a unique piece of art. “I like the
artistic design of the jewellery as well as
the idea to help to maintain this old and
traditional way of artistic craftsmanship
of the Sahara. Every piece of jewellery is
unique and has its history“, tells Giorgio.
And although there are many hours
of work in the pieces of jewellery the
prices are comparative with the mass
production pieces, making them even
more attractive.
The personal aspect of art is very
important in Arte de Lava. Only pieces of
art that Giorgio recommends are offered
in his shop. And the list of products
reaches from paintings to jewellery to
morocco wood works up to little pieces
of art made of lava, the origin of the shops
name. The curiosity to learn something
new has led Giorgio into the history of
the original population of Lanzarote and
many of their historic symbols decorate
today stones and pieces of lava from
the island. In this way past and present
are combined. Everybody who spends
some time in the shop can learn a lot of
detail about each and every piece of art
by speaking with Giorgio.
Art is filled with life if you know its
history, production and meaning. Arte
de Lava is a perfect place to see art from
many different regions and with very
different meanings. At the same time
you can share the passion for art that
Giorgio implies in his shop. Visit this
special shop and take your time to get
to know the art that’s offered.

Creative and fresh cuisine
S
ince opening the restaurant La
Cabaña in Macher Deb and Darren
Spurr have made a dream come
true here on Lanzarote: to run their own
quality restaurant offering everything as
they personally like to present it. After
seven years in the business their success
shows that their idea works out very
well.
Maybe the biggest secret of success
is the small size of the restaurant. With
only 10 tables and maximum 30 people
everything gets a personal and intimate
touch. On the weekly changing menu
you find special dishes worked out with
a creative finesse by Darren, and Deb
takes her time to make everybody feel
comfortable and welcome. This personal
contact makes friendships and for a long
time now La Cabaña has a big circle of
clients that come again and again to
enjoy the special atmosphere and have
a good night out.
Very modern and quite original is the
open room concept in la Cabaña. The
guests have the opportunity to look
right into the kitchen and be part of
the whole cooking process. That is a
guarantee for freshness, shows the
great professionalism of Darren and
creates an open and honest ambient.
All the ingredients in La Cabaña are
homemade, from the starters to the
sauces and the exquisite desserts. The
changing and short menu also helps
to offer only the freshest produce and
over the years Deb und Darren have
found suppliers that offers exactly
what they want.„We are always looking
for special ingredients when we go
to buy the food for the restaurant.
We like to surprise our guests with
new creations. There are too many
restaurants on the island that all offer
the same, we try to be more creative”
tells Darren.

Also the selection of wine take a lot of
time out of Debs schedule, she always
tries to find something new. Next to the
wine from the island you will find on
the wine menu quality wines from all
over the world, for example Argentina
or South Africa. “We like our guests to
take their time over a dinner here. In a
comfortable and relaxing atmosphere
you can enjoy and take time to try
something new. We always tell people
about the specialities on the menu and
try to offer them something new and
unusual” explains Deb.
The La Cabaña opens five nights a
week (except Sunday and Monday)
and a visit to this positively different
restaurant is always worthwhile. Due
to limited seating booking is highly
recommended.

A short holiday treatment
for your hair
U
te Peters is a hairdresser and
has owned Art of Hair based

years. She has created a relaxed and
inviting atmosphere where her clients
can enjoy been pampered.

water, even the healthiest hair gets dry
and brittle. And there is nothing worse
then coming home from holidays very
relaxed and with a nice tan but with
the hair damaged.
To fight against all these influences Art
of Hair offers special care treatments for
the hair that show nearly immediately
astonishing results. Packages with
mineral oil, humidity treatments and
very important UV-filters are some of
the products used. As an expert Ute
works with tried and tested products
of Revlon and Wella, because she
knows exactly that reliability is one
of the most important gifts in hair
dresser.
Also new is the offer of Art of Hair for
individual style-advice for weddings
and other important festivities.
From the haircut to the right colour
consultations and the perfect make up
for the event everything is considered.
Fixed cooperation with wedding
agencies on Lanzarote will start soon.
If you are spending a longer period of
time on Lanzarote, if you are a resident
or just passing your holidays here, a
visit to Art of Hair will be good for your
hair. You can choose between a new
individual haircut or experience the
great effects of the special Lanzarote
care treatments on your hair. Invite
your hair to a short holiday, visit Art of

Canarian Whale and Dolphin Museum
Interesting insights in the life underwater
T
he Canary Islands are one of the regions in the world which offers perfect
conditions to study the different species of aquatic mammals. Many species
are living in the water around the islands; others are passing through during
the year. The existence of 27 different species is documented, which makes the
Canary Island the only place in Europe where it is possible to watch regularly shortfinned pilot whale, the Risso’s dolphin, the rough-toothed dolphin, the common
bottlenose dolphin, the Atlantic spotted dolphin or the Bryde’s whale.
For over 20 years the Society for the Study of Cetaceans in the Canary Islands
(SECAC) has studied the animals and many results of their work can be seen in the
Canarian Whale and Dolphin Museum in Puerto Calero. The museum is a scientific
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 30
centre of information where you can
find a lot of interesting detail about
these fascinating animals, explained in
an understandable way. Of course there
are no living animals shown, because
the best surrounding for the whales
and dolphins is the sea. But there are
many attention-grabbing displays and
documentary films made on the Canary
Islands, as well as informative plates
show the visitor the way of life and the
natural environment of the animals.
In four thematic rooms you will find
information about all aspects of
the aquatic mammals and next to
authentic skeletons a lot of models,
based on scientific studies, there is a
lot to see. The most important message
of the museum is the respect for the
environment of these sea animals. Many
visitors, which normally only spend
their vacations close to the sea, will
get a lot of astonishing and interesting
information. The children especially love
the museum. Because dolphins are one
of their favourite animals and because of
the different objects and media to touch,
see and feel giving them the opportunity
to experience using all senses.
A visit to the Canarian Whale and Dolphin
Museum is always worthwhile. Tourist
will receive a lot of information about
the sea around the Canary Islands and
also residents will be amazed about how
little they know about the environment
around them. And one day later on the
beach you can start watching for typical
signs of dolphins and whales on the sea
and you will realize, how close you are to
these animals.

Restaurante Bogavante
Best canarian cuisine right on the seafront
F
or many visitors dinner in El Golfo is a priority while they are on vacation. Here
in the small village close to the volcanic lagoon Charco de los Clicos you find
the best restaurants for fresh fish on the island. The Restaurante Bogavante
from Adrían Rodríguez unites its spectacular location by the sea and its typical
canarian dishes giving you the best of El Golfo.
On the terrace of the Bogavante you experience the sea and the salty natural breeze
and once the sun starts to decline you can experience here some of the most amazing
sunsets. Accompanied by a fresh fish from the day, deliciously prepared, the typical
Papas arrugadas or one of the other canarian dishes of the menu and the world is
perfect for a while. For owner Adrían Rodríguez quality and service are the most
important things in his restaurant. Only the freshest produce finds its way into his
kitchen and the chefs always try to keep up with the traditional canarian cuisine.
„For me it is very important that our guests have a good time here and that they want
to come back. We have a lot of regular guests which visit the Bogavante at least once
while they are on the island because here they can enjoy the natural surrounding
and our fresh canarian dishes at fair prices. A satisfied and happy client on a small
island like Lanzarote is the best promotion you can get. Also we have the fantastic
sunsets that you can enjoy from the restaurant or the terrace directly on the beach.
Our clients love that”, tells Adrían.
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009

Next to fresh fish and meat you will
find in the Bogavante also some very
typical island dishes that are hard to
find anywhere else. One classic is gofio,
in the past one of the most important
basics for the islanders and difficult to
find today. In the Bogavante you can
try this specialty made of roasted grain
in different variations. To introduce our
reader to the canarian cuisine Adrian
invites you to try with your meal another
canarian secret: a starter made of fresh
goat cheese, figs and homemade gofio
with raisins and almonds. This is the real
taste of Lanzarote.
As El Golfo should be part of your visiting
program you will find here the perfect
opportunity to get to know the island
from its best side. The volcanic crater
filled with sea water and the spectacular
sunsets show the natural Lanzarote,
whilst visiting the restaurant Bogavante
you can try the most delicious plates of
the island. A perfect day out.

Lanzarote Golf Resort
The new challenge
S
ince last year the second golf
course in Lanzarote has opened
and offers to all golf players a new
sport challenge. Situated on a slope
between Puerto del Carmen and Tías
you can enjoy the unique landscape of
the island and fantastic views of the sea.
The new golf course was designed by
the well known American designer Ron
Kirby and it fits harmonically into the
surrounding area. The course has 18
holes with par 72 and is more than 6000
metres long. From the first moment of
planning, the ecological side as well as
the integration into the natural volcanic
landscape were taken into consideration.
And the result, a green oasis with its
own water depuration and magnificent
fairways, shows that real experts worked
on the project.
While all 18 holes of the golf course
are already playable works on the
infrastructure of the Golf Resort
continues. The club house with all
possible comforts you’d expect in this
sport will be finished during this year.
A reception, a professional golf shop,
changing rooms, two restaurants and a
cafeteria with spectacular views over the
golf course and the Atlantic will satisfy
all.
Also for beginners of this interesting
sport the golf course offers perfect
conditions. Driving range, putting green
and a special area with bunker are there
to learn the basics of the game. In the
golf academy professional teachers
offer the possibility to learn everything
about golf or to improve your game.
One of the main principles of Lanzarote
Golf is the idea to offer this sport to
everybody who is looking for a new
35 / Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
sport alternative, following the actual
tendency to establish golf as a sport for
one and all.
One of the biggest advantages of the
golf course is the climate. While nearly
all golf courses in Europe close during
the winter season you can enjoy playing
in Lanzarote during the whole year. With
spring like temperatures this open air
sport becomes a real pleasure and the
magnificent views of the Atlantic and the
Ajaches mountains are truly impressive.

Submarine Safaris
A unique underwater adventure
 
F
or anyone who has always wanted to see the
magnificent underwater world, here in Lanzarote
you will find the unique possibility to dive with a
submarine into the watery landscape of this volcanic island.
In the harbour of Puerto Calero, the modern submarine
Sub Fun Tres with its 48 seats offers a special experience.
 
Since 1997 the company Submarine Safari SL has taken
people on underwater excursions along the coast, starting
in the exclusive marina. If you drive down the road to the
harbour you will find the office on the left hand side, where
you can book your tour or buy some special souvenirs. This
is also the meeting point for all the passengers before
they start their journey into, for many totally unknown,
the underwater world of the island. Before starting the
trip, each group of passengers gets some special security
advice for the tour, similar to the security advice on planes,
which makes it clear that this excursion is not only another
leisure activity, but a high tech trip with a state of the art
submarine that can dive up to 60 metres.
Instead of security belts and emergency exits, the security
video explains the use of swimming vests and the oxygen
masks on board. Also you will be told that the 3.5 million
dollar and 106 ton submarine is technically equipped with
everything that the passengers need to feel totally safe
and secure. Inside the submarine a system automatically
regulates the air pressure, so that it is safe even for
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 36
pregnant women or people with heart
or respiratory difficulties to enjoy the
tour. Children under two years of age
cannot be allowed because of health
security reasons.
 
After seeing the informative video, the
passengers walk along a promenade
to the Sub Fun Tres. Once you see the
bright yellow submarine, 18 metres
long and 4 metres wide, you will know
for sure that this excursion will be a
real underwater adventure. Before
entering the submarine, some photos
will be taken and then the trip into the
waters between Puerto Calero and Playa
Quemada begins. In addition to the 80
centimetre porthole for each passenger,
which allows you to take photos of
the world that is in the sea, everybody
has a monitor that gives continuous
information about the depth and the
direction of the sub. You can also see on
the monitor how the boat dives into the
Atlantic Ocean.
 
Once you are under the sea, you
will see the first inquisitive fish pass
by the window. On board a guide
gives information in three languages
explaining the variety of fish that there is
to see, and there is a lot to see: the whole
spectrum of the local underwater fauna
from cherne to mero, vieja to barracudas.
With a bit of luck you may see a manta
ray or a ball fish - but you have to watch
the sea bed very closely to see these. The
excursion passes the harbour, a sunken
boat and then goes down to a 35 metre
deep spot where a diver feeds the fish
in front of the passengers windows, the
variety that you can see is amazing.
 
After a little rest under the sea, the boat
turns and goes back to the harbour so
that you can see all the interesting things
on this wonderful journey from the other
side of the boat. Before reaching the
harbour, the classic Beatles tune “Yellow
submarine” is played inviting you to sing
along. After 60 minutes the Sub Fun Tres
reaches Puerto Calero again and the
passengers can get their dive certificates
from the tour office. There you can also
find the photos taken at the beginning
of the trip.
 
The submarine excursions go several
times a day and it is recommended that
you book at least one day in advance.
A special shuttle bus connects Puerto
Calero with the main tourist areas of
Costa Teguise, Puerto del Carmen and
Playa Blanca.

Medi Chi Lanzarote
The nature healing practise
for your wellbeing
J
utta Kiltz is a certified natural healer
and worked for many years in
Germany before opening the nature
healing practise Medi Chi Lanzarote. In
Germany natural healers are already
accepted as an additional service to
general medicine and even the state
health services acknowledge their
services. In Spain and other European
countries nature healing is still not that
much known.
„I understand my work is an additional
offer to medics and doctors, which are
always more open to complementary
therapies from the field of natural
healing, therefore I like to cooperate
with them to benefit the patient“
explains Jutta Kiltz. “A natural healer
tries to get the whole story of a patient,
which takes a long time, and then he
looks for alternative ways of treatments
with a natural basis. “ The focus of
the treatments of the nature healing
practise Medi Chi are traditional Chinese
acupuncture and modern magnet field
therapies which are very effective with
chronic illnesses and psychosomatic
problems. To keep up to date with her
treatments Jutta Kitz attends regular
courses and seminars in Germany. And
on the island she works hand in hand
with the medics of her patients.
Next to her regular clients Jutta Kiltz
also offers help to tourists who have
problems to disconnect and enjoy
their well earned holiday, the most
important time of the year to regain
energy and to fill the batteries. With
different techniques Medi Chi helps
to forget the working routine and to
start to enjoy the free time. Massages,
aroma or audiovisual therapies as well
as a long list of other relaxing therapies
will help you to find a perfect start at
the most important time of the year.
Especially for tourists, Jutta Kiltz offers
weekend seminars on wellbeing. These
offers can be found on the homepage of
Medi Chi Lanzarote along with a list of
accommodation available in the south
of the Island.
Our exclusive offer of a 25 minute relaxing
massage (available by appointment) are
ideal as a first experience of a natural
healer. The results of her work are also
bringing more and more patients via
recommendation of other patients
to Jutta Kiltz. “Everybody should do
something for their wellbeing and
health, and the nature healing practise
Medi Chi Lanzarote can help you in
make that happen.”

Ahumadería de Macher
Smoked salmon and lots more
F
or six years now Lina Rademacher
runs a small smoked fish shop in
Macher, and from a modest start
with a small smoking chamber her
shop has developed a new direction in
smoked fish on the island. Every week
nearly 600 kilo of smoked salmon are
prepared here and among the clients
are nearly all of the five star hotels of
the island, some of the best restaurants
and numerous residents, come directly
to Macher to buy this delicacy in Linas
shop.
The fresh salmon comes up to three
times a week by plane from Norway
and then gets prepared on the island.
Linas family originate from Paris and
for three generations smoking fish is
their business. Many recipes and the
homemade way of preparation, have
been passed on from generation to
generation.
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 40
The preparation process to get the fish
into a perfectly smoked condition lasts
up to 48 hours. First the fish is cleaned,
then the fish bones are picked out one
by one with tweezers, then it rests in a
special marinade and later gets smoked
in the special oven exactly as long
as it takes to give it this special taste,
that makes the salmon from Macher
so unique. „For us quality is the most
important“, tells Lina Rademacher. “We
are happy about every client who visits
us, but even more about the clients who
come back again and again, because
they are convinced of our product.”
Next to the classic, the smoked salmon,
the Ahumadería de Macher also offers
smoked tuna and smoked swordfish.
Absolutely new is the smoked octopus
that, once cooked, gets this special taste
in the smoking chamber. “We like to try
new recipes and also try to use fresh
fish from the island as often as possible.
But to guarantee quality and freshness
we depend on the quick deliveries from
Norway. “
A visit to the shop for smoked fish in Macher is always worthwhile. Here you can
buy the smoked salmon ready to prepare yourself in your apartment or holiday
home a five star breakfast, whilst there
you can try the other products on offer.
Lina Rademacher always invites you to
try her smoked fish and on the terrace
of the shop you can rest, taste and exchange the best salmon recipes with the
expert. And finally when Lina mentions
the French salmon cake your mouth will
be well and truly watering.

Carlos Parra
Art in many
variations
F
or over 20 years now artist Carlos
Parra has lived and worked on
Lanzarote. His old ateliers in
La Geria and Maguez, which always
had the doors open for visitors, are
still a good memory for residents
and tourists alike. For six years he
has been running his own space in
Teguise, where he offers his paintings
and jewellery, a perfect place to get
to know the art and the artist.
The big passion of Carlos Parra is his
painting, and even when he diverts
to other disciplines of art, painting is
always the main base. His early fish
motives are decorating a lot of houses
on the island and mainland Spain and
through the years his paintings have
become more and more influenced
by the island. Carlos prefers a natural
basis for his works as oil paintings and
natural pigments from different parts
of the world.
“Its important for me to hear what
people see in my pictures, that is
often the basis for very interesting
conversations,“ tells Carlos. His
paintings have been exposed on all
Canarian Islands, on mainland Spain
as well as in other European countries.
Some galleries in big European cities
have paintings from Carlos Parra in

“When I want to disconnect from
painting I try to express my creativity in
different forms. The design of jewellery
is very satisfying and successful. I have
a special line of silver jewellery with
magical symbols that I like very much.”
Each piece of jewellery is unique and a
piece of art. You will find here in Carlos
Parras space pieces of jewellery that
are totally unique.
Carlos Parra is an artist that you have
to know a little bit to understand his
art better. His place is an ideal meeting
point. The small terrace of the next

you have a look at his art you can
chat with the artist. And in that way
you can get more information about
the creative influences of the island
and about the different visions of the

Tágora
Traditional Canarian art
W
hen you take a look at the markets and shops in the touristy areas it is
easy to come to the conclusion that all the articles and souvenirs are
made in China. Authentic traditional art and handicraft of the Canary
Islands is hard to find and only people who know the island know how to find
shops like Tágora in Macher.
It is easy to see that Beatriz and Alejandro, the owner of Tágora, have a special
interest in Canarian art and handicraft. In their big shop on the street between
Macher and Puerto del Carmen they offer art and craftsmanship not only from
Lanzarote but also chosen pieces of other Canary Islands. To achieve that they
regularly visit the fairs for art and craftsmanship on all the islands and they
always try to get in contact with the artists. Because as in all the cultures also the
traditional pieces of the Canaries have their meaning and history. And you can
learn a lot about that in the shop Tágora.
If you look around in the shop you will find a wide spread offer. Pottery, olivinejewellery, rugs, wine, cigars, T-Shirts, decorative miniature balconies, traditional
filters for water or decorative working tools of the island are on sale and to each
piece of art Beatriz can tell where it comes from, how it was produced and what

it was used for. To speak with her about
the articles is like doing a little journey
through time and history through all
of the seven islands. And you notice
directly that Beatriz knows all the
artists personally and that she always
tries to maintain the old tradition of
handicraft.
“Many of the artists have the problem
that their prices can not compete with
mass production. But many of the
pieces that they produce, like old water
cans made of clay or baskets made of
palm leaves, are important parts of the
islands history. In my opinion these old
techniques have to be maintained and
with my shop I try to offer a place of
sale to all the artists” tells Beatriz.
If you like to know a little bit more
about the history of the Canary Island
and are interested in old traditions
and former ways of living you should
definitely visit the shop Tágora. As
well if you are looking for wine from
the island, the popular cigars from La
Palma or other culinary specialities
you will find them there. Talking to the
very friendly owners you will get to
know a lot of new things and for sure
you will get some original ideas to
include some of the historical points
on the islands during your excursions.

El Pastelito Tahiche
The art of German bakery
G
erman bakery products are very
popular in Lanzarote and more
and more residents and visitors
like the many different kinds of bread,
pastry and the delicious and decorative
cakes. In Tahiche you will find El Pastelito,
one of the best places to try all these
delicacies.
Matthias Geissler and Sindy Wendt
started to run the big bakery five years
ago close to the Fundación César
Manrique and quickly impressed their
clients with their products. From typical
German bread rolls or pastries to cakes in
different sizes and different ingredients.
The local population love the art of
German bakery and more and more
tourists are making it their destination.
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 52
The situation of the bakery with its big
cafeteria right in the middle of the island
makes it the perfect place for a meal
during an excursion, or to buy some food
for the day. During the morning you will
find a lot of people having breakfast in
El Pastelito and around midday the well
prepared filled bread rolls or pastries
such as “Berliner” or “Raisin snails” are
very popular. Throughout the years
they have introduced typical pastries
of the island and now you can find in
El Pastelito a broad mixture of delicious
bakery products.
One of the most popular products in the
shop are the small cakes that people like
for their afternoon tea break. You find
them with fruits, cheese, chocolate or
other specialties and these small cakes
are a real temptation to try and enjoy.
The good reputation of the cakes is
the reason why so many families order
big cakes in El Pastelito for weddings,
birthdays or other special occasions.
Matthias and Sindy estimate that around
70 per cent of their clients are local
Spanish people.
It does not matter if you are visiting the
Fundación Cesar Manrique, if you are on
your way to Mirador del Rio, Jameos del
Agua or Cueva de los Verdes, if you make
a tour to the north of the island or visit
the big Sunday market in Teguise, all
excursions bring you close to the bakery
El Pastelito in Tahiche. Head north on the
big roundabout of Tahiche and after 100
metres you will see the big cafeteria on
the right. A visit is always recommended
and once you try the art of German
bakery you will include El Pastelito in
every excursion that you plan during
your stay. Enjoy!

Restaurante Salmarina
Enjoying away from mass-tourism
I
f you leave the three big touristy centres of the island it is very easy possible to
discover the original Lanzarote, small villages with idyllic tranquillity and a special
beauty and atmosphere. One of these nice places is Playa Quemada and with the
Restaurant Salmarina you find there also a perfect place to enjoy this idyll.
Although the restaurant opened only some months ago, for the great experience in
gastronomy and for its perfect situation right by the sea it is one of the best directions
in the village. Owner José Reyes formed an exquisite team of people, formed from
the staff of other popular restaurants of the island as La Era, Casa Roja or La Mesana.
In the kitchen as well as in the treatment of the guests you find the hospitality and
tradition of the island.
Among residents the black beach of the village is a well guided place for a quiet and
lazy day on the beach and often a perfect day finds his end in the Salmarina. Open
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009

during the whole day you can relax on
the big terrace and enjoy the great views
of the sea and the Ajaches Mountains.
The decoration with traditional
fisherman stuff of the island creates a
nice ambient and you notice, that it is
important for the owners to continue in
their restaurant with the special flair of
Playa Quemada.
In Salmarina you will find typical dishes
from the island, fresh salads and other
traditional plates, prepared fresh and
tastefully. Starters as the homemade
croquettes, stuffed paprika, papas
arrugadas with Mojo or fresh goat
cheese open the appetite for the second
plates, fresh fish, sea fruits and mussels,
Paella, chickpeas, rabbit or one if the
delicious island goulash. And after the
main course homemade traditional
desserts as flan with caramel, milk-rice
or cheese-cake tempt to try them.
The main attractions of Playa Quemada
are for sure the quiet and isolated beach,
the great views and the typical cuisine of
the restaurant Salmarina. Here you can
enjoy Lanzarote from its best side, away
from mass-tourism.

Gastropup Lilium
The perfect mixture of bar and restaurant
F
or three years now Orlando Ortega
runs the nice Gastropup Lilium,
first in Tías and now in Arrecife. The
well done mixture of bar and restaurant,
where you can try the delicious Canarian
cuisine in a special atmosphere,
convinces residents and tourists alike.
Orlando, who worked for some time in
the restaurant El Bulli of Ferran Adria,
recognized over several years as the
best cook in the world, fulfilled himself
with the opening of the Gastropup
Lilium a personal initiative: a mixture of
a comfortable bar where you can have
a nice dinner, and a first class restaurant
with a special atmosphere. And right
from the beginning after entering Lilium
you notice the little difference and a lot
of small details show the perfection and
creativity of Orlando.
Very special is for example the well
chosen and exquisite selection of wine,
which is not offered as usual in a list,
but in a special exhibition area where
you can see everything on offer. For
the open bottle wines on offer exists
a special nitrogen-station, which
maintains perfectly the taste and texture
of each wine. Apart from the menu you
will find in Lilium a list of daily fresh
specialities that are listed on a special
board together with the prices. And in
the menu you find a creative Canarian
cuisine full of surprises.
Croquettes made of gofio or banana
are a perfect company for a beer on
the bar and only one example for the
original snacks you can find here. If you
chose a table in the restaurant area you
can decide between different starters,
salads, fresh fish or meat dishes, that
are all made with the freshest Canarian
produce available and that surprise
with their interesting and original
way of preparation. In search for new
flavours Orlando started offering blindfolded tasting events, where the guests
get the opportunity to taste different
plates without seeing them so that they
can concentrate on the different new
57 / Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
flavours. Cooperation with some of the
bodegas of the island completes the
culinary offer.
In some special cupboards of the Lilium
you will find culinary delicacies that
normally are very difficult to find on
the island. Orlando likes to speak about
recipes and ways of cooking and often he
gets into conversations with his clients
who ask for the ways of preparation and
the ingredients of his plates. To make it
easier to try some of his recipes at home
Orlando not only explains his tricks, he
also offers some special ingredients for
sale: a very nice and open way of running
a unique gastronomy.

Playing roulette or Black Jack is very easy
to learn and you can try the first steps
immediately. With poker it is advisable
to learn a little more before sharing a
table with the professionals because
this game needs a lot of experience
and finesse. Regularly the Gran Casino
organizes Poker competitions due to
the growing popularity of this game.
Everybody who has had the chance to
watch a poker game understands the
fascination of this card game.
The grand hall of the casino with the
large green playing tables is open at
night, but the rest of the facilities can
be visited during the whole day. From
10 o’clock in the morning until 4 in the
morning you can enjoy playing. In the
slot machine hall you can try your luck
with only 2 cents and win about 2000
times your bet. Additionally you can also
play Bingo, a game that is very popular
in England and Spain.
The restaurant Fortuna offers a creative
cuisine with traditional elements; on the
roof terrace you can try small dishes and
a large variety of cocktails. You have to
present your passport to access all areas
of the casino except the roof terrace.

Catlanza    Take a catamaran to the nicest beaches
 
O
ne of the best ideas for a perfect day out is to have an excursion, out to
sea, on a sailing boat. That way you can see the island from a very different
and interesting perspective and enjoy swimming, sunbathing and a lot
of sporting activities. Catlanza makes that dream come true with their exclusive
catamaran excursions.
 
The catamaran experience starts with transport from your hotel, which makes it
very easy for everybody to join in. Once you set foot on this impressive craft, some
photos will be taken that you can purchase after your trip. Then follows the technical
instruction: in order to get the craft out of the harbour, everybody has to stay in their
seats for the first ten minutes of the tour, after that the whole boat is free to roam.
So while the crew steers the boat out of the harbour, the passengers stay in the bar
area and get information about the programme of the day.
 
Once the information is given, the passengers start to look for the best places to
relax, the net area between the two parts of the catamaran is especially popular. The
crew meanwhile starts to set the sails and everyone is invited to join in and help.
With the strong winds the boat begins to speed up quickly and the area on the net
converts into a sun bed, with strong waves giving you a natural sea shower.
 
It is quite interesting to see the island from the sea, the touristy areas as well as
the natural park Los Ajaches with beautiful and new vistas. After about an hour of
sailing, the catamaran reaches the Papagayo beaches in the south, where it stops for
a rest. If you like you can get snorkelling equipment from the crew and dive from the
boat into the crystal clear water, where a multitude of fish abounds. Back on board
you get the opportunity to speed over the waves on a Jet Ski.
 
While the passengers are having fun, the cook starts preparing lunch. Once you have
had enough of the water and Jet Skiing, you can have your meal in the bar area of
the boat. Of course you get free drinks during the whole trip. After 90 minutes near
the beach, the catamaran starts sailing again. The passengers have time to enjoy the
magnificent views, get a chance to steer the boat, or just relax in the sun to savour
the excitement of the day.
 
Once back in Puerto Calero you have time to have a look at the harbour and the
shops before the bus takes you back to your hotel. In the Irish Pub opposite the
landing pier you will find photos for sale from the start of the trip.
 
The Catlanza excursions are available once or twice a day, depending on the season
and bookings, and are a way to spend a perfect day with all the best the island has
to offer, beaches, sun and a lot of fun.

Mega Fun Quad
Paisajes únicos y mucha diversión
U
na empresa que lleva su nombre como lema. Desde hace más de 12 años
Mega Fun Quad ofrece excursiones en buggies y quads por los paisajes únicos de Lanzarote y llevan los excursionistas a regiones donde normalmente
nadie llega. La diversión está garantizada.
Las peculiares excursiones comienzan en Puerto del Carmen y llevan a los
excursionistas conductores a San Bartolomé y las dunas de arena cercanas a Famara.
Después de una pausa de retorno recorre la región del vino de La Geria. Prácticamente
todo el que tenga carnet de conducir puede disfrutar de las excursiones y circular
con buggies es bastante fácil. Los pequeños y abiertos vehículos se encuentran en
perfecto estado tienen un motor automático y aunque se conducen como coches,
no hace falta cambiar las marchas. Los quads, una variación de una moto con cuatro
ruedas, necesitan un poco más de técnica, pero también son muy fáciles de conducir.
Para los propietarios alemanes es muy importante aclarar que las excursiones
no son ralleys y que es muy importante que el grupo se mantenga unido. Con
una velocidad de 40 a 50 kilómetros por hora el convoy circula alrededor de 80
kilómetros sobre pistas aisladas que llevan a todos a paisajes singulares de la isla. El
80 % del recorrido de la excursión, los vehículos circulan por pistas que no son aptas
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009
/ 66
para otros vehículos. Especialmente en
las dunas de arena cerca de Famara los
vehículos Offroad demuestran su fuerza
y la carrera por la arena ofrece una nueva
experiencia al de conducir.
Las rutas están reconocidas por las
instituciones y un guía se ocupa
durante la excursión de la seguridad
de los conductores. Muy interesante es
que la edad media de los aficionados
a los buggies es de 40 años, mucho
más alto de lo que muchos creían.
También familias y personas mayores,
que no alquilarían solos para ellos
un jeep, aprovechan la oportunidad
para conocer Lanzarote desde un lado
diferente. La edad mínima para los niños
es de 7 años.
Para garantizar la seguridad de todos
los vehículos se revisan y limpian a
diario y por supuesto están asegurados
contra accidentes. Es importante utilizar
zapatos cerrados para conducir los
buggies, el casco y las gafas ofrecen más
seguridad y confort, porque conducir
sobre los caminos sin asfaltar pude
resultar polvoriento. Los propietarios de
Mega Fun Quad están muy orgullosos
de organizar las excursiones desde 1996
y nunca haber sufrido un accidente; con
hasta tres excursiones al día durante 12
años un dato con mucho peso.
Para acostumbrar a los conductores
con los vehículos cada persona hace
una pequeña prueba cerca de la oficina
de Mega Fun Quad. Aquellos que no
quieran conducir podrán disfrutar la
excursión como pasajero. Pruebe esta
excursión tan diferente y conozca
Lanzarote desde un nuevo punto de
vista. Las pistas, donde los coches
normales no pueden circular le llevarán
a nuevos paisajes. Los abiertos buggies
le brindan la oportunidad de divertirse
conduciendo como nunca lo hizo antes.

complimented by typical French dishes
with their tasteful sauces and exclusive
ingredients.
Once you enter the restaurant close to
the Commercial Centre Biosfera you
leave Spain and enter France. The
walls are decorated in pink,
small curtains separate
the tables and
many posters and
photos remind the
Arte Nouveau and
the artistic scene in
Paris. The menus are
small painter’s palettes
and on every table you
find
a
authentically reproduced leaflet about
Montmartre. In the background you can
hear traditional French chansons.
“Our clients love the special atmosphere
of our restaurant and the French dishes
are a welcome alternative to Spanish
cuisine” explains Javier. On the menu you
find all the classics: onion soup, crepes,
frog’s legs, snails and meat and fish
dishes with tasteful sauces. “People who
find our restaurant tend to come again
and again. In the restaurant Montmartre
you can spend a nice evening and let
yourself be seduced by the French
charm. The whole atmosphere creates
a very familiar and personal ambience”,
says Javier. All the wines come from
France and compliment the delicious
dishes.
The success of the Restaurant Montmartre
for over 18 years shows that the owner’s
idea to offer “something different” is
a welcome change for tourists and a
great possibility for all residents to go
on a gastronomic excursion. With the
exquisite offer and the comfortable
decoration the Montmartre is a unique
alternative for spending a great evening
in a different ambience.

nce you enter the Museum Lagomar you feel like you are entering a different
world. The harmonic integration of this magical place into nature, the great
gastronomic offer and the special atmosphere let you forget time and place

A legend tells that this little paradise once belonged to the famous actor Omar Sharif
(Egypt, 1932), who’s name is always present in a play of words Lago (lake) and mar
(sea). It says that he bought the place during the filming of “The mysterious island”
and that he lost it shortly after in a game of Bridge. In the end it doesn’t matter who
lived here because fact is that today Lagomar is similar to the works of César Manrique,
making it one of the most visited places on the island.
The old quarry with its small labyrinth of caves was renovated with loving care and
attention to detail by the current owners, the architects Dominik Von Boettinger and
Beatriz van Hoff. Inside Lagomar you find a museum which tells the story of this special
place, many pieces of art from local artists, a high class restaurant and the famous

for the items that his clients might like
and the direct sale and transport of all
items result in very attractive prices. In
the shop you will find antiques as well
as reproductions and Emporium also
works as a wholesaler for other shops on
the Canary Islands.
Over the years more and more tourists
have discovered the Emporium and
have bought, among other things, large
decorative furniture. Therefore the shop
has contact with international transport
companies that offer transportation
to England, France or Germany at
very affordable prices. This way a lot
of Chinese furniture or carpets have
found their way into central Europe via
Lanzarote.
Almost everyone who comes to
Lanzarote visits Teguise and therefore
it is quite easy to visit Emporium and to
have a look at the amazing items on offer.
If you meet the owner Indigo in the shop
you can enquire about any piece for sale,
its origin and how he found it. Often that
leads to a very interesting story.

Bar and Golf Restaurant Hoyo 19
Experience this special atmosphere
Many tourists and residents are always on the search for a place to enjoy a drink, a
light meal or a really good dinner in a special atmosphere. For some months now
the newly opened restaurant Hoyo 19 at the golf course between Tías and Puerto
del Carmen offers exactly this.
Away from the hectic tourist areas, on the terrace of the restaurant, you can enjoy
views of the green fairways and across the sea to Fuerteventura. The small but very
fine cuisine of the restaurant offers the perfect dishes for anytime of the day. From
a big continental breakfast, to small snacks, tapas or coffee and cake to the weekly
changing menu you will find here both quality and choice for every occasion.
Michael Spieler and Sven Freitag saw the potential in establishing a bar and
restaurant on the new golf course. Until the main building is finished they work
in a provisional space and are using the large terrace to offer special surroundings
for their clients. The actual bar-restaurant offers a great advantage for their clients
as here a very personal and caring service can be offered, so often lacking in large
Lanzarote Exclusive 2009

restaurants. Especially at dinner time, when the kitchen only opens for reservations,
this becomes apparent. All dishes are freshly prepared to order and it is interesting
to see what the weekly change of menu brings, you will always find a vegetarian
dish on the menu. Sven Freitag, who has worked in other popular restaurants such
as Meson de Tiagua, La Finca or Restaurant Chili, offers a modern international
cuisine with only the freshest ingredients, delighting with dishes such as braised
rabbit in prune sauce with canarian potatoes or lamb filet with warm lentil salad
are some examples of the good and economic dishes on offer.
Sven and Michael ensure everyone is welcome in the golf restaurant and you don’t
have to play golf or follow a certain dress code to enjoy the unique, quiet and
beautiful atmosphere. Many clients come again and again, happy to have found
this place only 5 minutes away from the busy Puerto del Carmen. We recommend
a visit to the golf restaurant to enjoy a drink and see for yourself these special
surroundings, where you will find the tranquillity and ambience that you were
searching for.
