Traditional Canarian cooking facing the Atlantic, with Tenerife and La Gomera on the horizon, at the Parador in Breña Baja, 5 km from the airport.

The Parador de La Palma has its dining room at El Zumacal, in Breña Baja, between the airport and Santa Cruz de La Palma, 5 km from both. From its big window you see Tenerife and La Gomera over the Atlantic. It is also open to those not staying at the Parador, with its own table reservation on the Paradores website.
Cherne, watercress stew and mojo picón
The menu is traditional Canarian cooking, which Paradores defines as the fruit of the mixing with products that arrived from America: cheeses, gofio, millo, black limpets, shrimps, fish such as wreckfish (cherne), amberjack (medregal) or yellowfin tuna (rabil), rabbit, kid, potatoes and mojos. Among its specialities stand out the watercress or chickpea stew with assorted meats, fresh fish grilled or boiled with mild or spicy mojo, wrinkled potatoes with their mojos and almogrote, and grilled wahoo (peto). For dessert, tropical fruits, príncipe Alberto with cream or bienmesabe, and to drink, Palmero wine. The website links the menu, but publishes no prices in the restaurant listing: ask when you book.
Dining room and café hours
The restaurant serves lunch from 13:30 to 15:30 and dinner from 19:00 to 22:00. Breakfast is from 7:00 to 10:30 Monday to Saturday and from 7:30 to 11:00 on Sundays and public holidays, and the café opens from 11:00 to 22:30 for something lighter. With those hours, if you are going to a stargazing session, the seven o'clock dinner fits before heading out to Los Cancajos, about 3 km away.
Booking, parking and dogs
Book on the Paradores website or on 922 435 828; they also answer at lapalma@parador.es. The Parador has free outdoor parking. Dogs don't enter any Paradores restaurant, although the Parador de La Palma admits pets in the rooms: if you travel with yours, ask whether you can eat in an outdoor area. To get there from the airport, continue towards Los Canarios to the San Antonio traffic light and turn right, where the Parador sign is.
On arrival or before a flight
It fits if you sleep at the Parador and don't want to drive at night, and also for a lunch on arriving on the island or before flying out, with the airport 5 km away. If you want more creative Canarian cooking, Casa Osmunda, in Breña Alta, is a few kilometres away.

Qué pedir: watercress or chickpea stew and the boiled fish of the day with mojo
