The Parador on La Palma is just outside the village of San Jose, in Breña Baja. (Paradors are a national chain of posh hotels, and very nice they are too.) Tonight (April 22nd ) at 8 pm they’ll be hosting the first public dinner with a new menu, inspired by astronomical bodies. A professional Starlight guide will be there to talk about the planets, and afterwards, there will be stargazing.

I haven’t tried these dishes myself, but people who have tell me they taste heavenly.

Cost: 40€ per person. Reservations are essential, since numbers will be limited. For more information and bookings, phone 922 43 58 28 or email lapalma@parador.es
