I don't know if they make it anywhere else in the world - it might be a Canarian speciality - but if you come to Tenerife you must try one. My stepson and his girlfriend spent one happy holiday searching for the best one.

But because I cannot enjoy one of these during my shopping trips, I now frequent a little place in Las Galletas called Cafela, where the green tea is the best I have tasted. A bonus is the view in the pedestrianised street behind the tiny cafe - this is an elderly couple's way of creating a garden outside their two-room apartment.

What a shame that someone can't renovate this little gem of a ruin that sits abandoned a few yards away.


And, returning like an addict to the caffeine theme, this shop opened its doors just beside the car park this week.
"Chocolat!" I gasped, probably aloud, but it was not so - the damn place is yet another shoe shop.
Haha I love that the shoe shop is called 'chocolat' - what a disappointment to a chocolate lover like me! And I must try that drink!
ReplyDeleteYes Amy, you must. It's nectar when made properly. Actually, it's quite good when they mix the layers before you get it too!
ReplyDeleteThat drink is a real work of art - seems a shame to spoil the artistry. As for Chocolat being a shoe shop a local town has two shops called Bakers. One is actually a butcher and the other a jeweller so very confusing for visitors one imagines.

The drink looks fantastic. I would have to ask for a decaf version, if possible. I wouldn't be able to handle the caffeine late in the day...or the alcohol early in the day :-)
