Canarian Culinary Journey

<p>Packed with endlessly varied landscapes, traditional villages, busy towns, gastronomic delights, and a thriving local culture, Lanzarote is one of the most diverse islands in the Canaries. The island has escaped mass tourism and the vibe here is decidedly Canarian but firmly Spanish. The capital city showcases its 17th-century heritage with pride which is apparent everywhere in Arrecife: from hearty fish stews to Andalucian-inspired architecture. Head to the old quarter to visit the beautiful San Ginés Church for its Mudéjar-style ceiling or head north to leafy Haria for the Casa-Museo César Manrique, a museum set in the local artist and designer&#39;s house. The entire island is a UNESCO Geopark so guests venturing outside of the city should expect a lunar-like landscape, especially if they venture to Timanfaya National Park, just 30 minutes from Arrecife.</p>

<p>César Manrique&#39;s pioneering vision of how man and the environment interact inspired many of the island&#39;s top spots. Even till this day his vision still influences how Canary people think about their islands and especially Lanzarote. This artist from Lanzarote knew how to transform the volcanic caves into a place full of peace, silence, harmony and beauty. The blue, white, green and black colors get mixed up and give these places an amazing pulchritude which makes your imagination and dreams fly. Take the chance to visit Manrique&#39;s creations like Jardin de Cactus and Jameos del Agua, places where the buildings engage in a constant dialog with the natural surroundings, making the volcano and architectonic elements blend in mutual respect. According to César Manrique, Lanzarote is the most beautiful place on Earth and if people could see it through his eyes they would definitely think likewise.</p>

<p>Discover some of Cesar Manrique&#39;s Jewels and learn about his vision and influence on the Canary people.</p>

<span>Back in centuries some literary references to Canary wine where already made by William Shakespeare in some of his key works such as Henry IV. We could interpret through these old references that the origins of this wine are ancient.

Along this tour you will discover the secrets of harvesting and producing of wine in this region, where the malmsey grape wine triumphs for the atmospheric conditions unique in the area generating great wide range of dry and sweet wines. The experience takes you to two of the most iconic cellars of the island in a wonderful route across the arid and volcanic landscapes of the region that will seduce you with its brown, amber elegantly colored wines.</span>

Its headquarters is at the artist&#39;s former home at Taro de Tahiche. Sited in an extraordinary palm grove, the Cesar Manrique Museum and home is the most valuable example of the artist&#39;s interpretation and re-creation of the values of traditional domestic architecture on Lanzarote. Starting from the ruins of a former rural manor, in his approach he applied modern criteria while exalting traditional local construction and its harmonization with nature. Continue towards the Crater Volcano Cuervo, located between the National Park of Timanfaya and La Geria. It is a volcano of rather small dimensions. According to the volcanological history, the first volcano to open was known today at the grassroots level with the same of La Caldera de los Cuervos.

Tangier&#39;s Nature

<div>As many Moroccans will proudly attest, the country has a very long tradition of religious tolerance.</div><div>In Tangier you will visit three examples of live religions that co-exist in the same city.</div><div>Your first stop will be Saint Andrew&#39;s church, which is built on land given to the government of the Queen of Great Britain - Queen Victoria - by the Sultan Moulay Hassan I in 1883. (Century earlier Morocco had been the first country in the world to recognize the independence of the United States of America).</div><div>The foundation stone was laid in 1894 and the church was consecrated in 1905. It is open to all denominations and has a history of distinguished ministry in a city which has long been the crossroads of three great religions.</div><div>The church is built in authentic Moorish style, a mark of respect to its host country. Workers in marble, wood and stucco came from Fez to enrich its outstanding interior. They carved the capitals of the columns and made the inscription of the Lord&#39;s Prayer in Arabic round the chancel arch. They created the exquisite ceiling of the chancel, made up of hundreds of small pieces of cedar wood, and the alcove at the east end of the church behind the nave is carved with texts from the Koran, reminiscent of the mihrab of a mosque. It is, to our knowledge, the only Christian church in the world with references to the Coran.</div><div>Many interesting memorials can be seen around the walls and also in the churchyard, a haven of peace and tranquility. Look out for the graves of the young men who lost their lives in military missions near here during World War II.</div><div>Your next place to visit (from the exterior only) is the Mosque of the Kasbah district which is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful in the Medina of Tangier.</div><div>This mosque stands out not only because it is the oldest in the city but also because it has a unique and precious octagonal minaret, also it has a typical entrance with a beautiful, coffered ceiling of brown colors. Although it is a pity as in all Morocco that entry is prohibited to non-Muslims.</div><div>Continuing with the visit, you will arrive to a dead-end street off the rue des Synagogues in the Beni Idir quarter of the Tangier medina, the synagogue Moshe Nahon was constructed in the 19th century by himself, a prominent educator and scholar from an influential Jewish family in Tangier. The synagogue ceased activity in the second half to the 20th century, and subsequently fell into disrepair until its restoration in 1994. It now functions as a museum.</div><div>The prayer room of the synagogue is accessible via a small courtyard at the end of the entrance corridor. The interior is elaborately decorated in an Andalusian style. Carved stucco walls are decorated with a repeating motif featuring ornamental embedded columns, trilobe arches, and arabesques with floral and geometric motifs. Perhaps most remarkable is the Arabic calligraphy repeated in three medallions vertically aligned below the superior lobe.</div><div>You will walk to a local restaurant for refreshments before returning to the pier.</div>

<p>Spend a memorable Half Day tangier to the historic center of Tangiers in Morocco. Enjoy the services of a local guide, stroll through the bustling alleyways of the medina  the kasbah to discover the most important corners of the historic center.</p><p>You will step inside the Moshe Nahon one of the most beautiful and impressive Synagogue with a stunning view.</p>

UNESCO Heritage: Tetouan

<div>Moroccan cuisine is considered one of the most important cuisines in the world. One of the reasons for its importance is its remarkable diversity of influences.</div><div>In Moroccan dishes, one can trace the country&#39;s long history of colonizers and immigrants who have left their mark in more than one way. The cuisine of the first inhabitants, the Berbers, still exists today in the staple dishes like tagine and couscous.</div><div>The Arab invasion brought new spices, nuts and dried fruits, and the sweet and sour combinations that we see in dishes like tagine with dates and lamb. The Moors introduced olives, olive juice and citrus while the Jewish-Moors left behind their sophisticated preserving techniques that we see in the frequent use of preserved lemons, pickles, etc.</div><div>The Ottoman Empire introduced barbeque (kebabs) to Moroccan cuisine. The French colony, although short-lived compared to reign of some of these other empires, left behind a culture of cafes, pastries, and even wine.</div><div>Over time, cooks in the kitchens of the five royal cities (Fez, Marrakesh, Meknes, Tangier and Rabat) have developed and perfected the dishes that blend each of these distinct tastes. Every Moroccan dish has its place in society and varies with the market, the season, and the region.</div><div>You will learn the secrets to preparing a variety of Moroccan specialties during this memorable cooking class and lunch at the Blue Door Hotel Cooking Classroom.</div><div>Our first stop will be the Grand Socco, home to a cavalcade of color, charm, street musicians, a fish market, scenic handicrafts, and spices.</div><div>From here, proceed to the Blue Door Classroom. Your arrival is greeted by refreshment (mint tea) followed by a cookery lesson. Learn the spices and methods used in the creation of a variety of Moroccan entrees and desserts as well as baking Moroccan bread. After the cooking class, enjoy the marvelous dishes that you prepared.</div><div>At the end of your cooking class, you will be receiving a certificate of success.</div><div>Depart to the quayside with the knowledge needed to impress at your next dinner party.</div>

<p>Receive an immersive food-and tea-based Experience based on storytelling, authentic sharing, and household techniques in making Moroccan bread from scratch, mint tea, and dishes like Chicken Tagine.</p>

Cooking Experience at Blue Door Cooking School

<div>It&#39;s always tea o&#39;clock in Morocco! Mint tea is the ubiquitous beverage here -deals are sealed, marriages are made, and fates are forged over it, but how to make it well remains a mystery to outsiders. Just add water. Certainly not! For Moroccans, mint tea is as important as Earl Grey is for the British and green tea is for the Chinese.</div><div>Today, we will learn the secrets of crafting perfect peppermint tea and enjoy it with bread fresh from the frans. </div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Head to the Grand Socco - the souk or marketplace that is the hub of Tangier. Although there are fewer vendors here than back in the old days, it is still home to a cavalcade of color, charm, street musicians, a fish market, handicrafts, and spices. It is organized chaos and, thus, a fun and frenetic place from which to begin your Tangier experience.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Proceed to Blue Door Cuisine, where we are taught how to prepare a wonderful cup of Moroccan mint tea and how to bake traditional bread. A certified chef keeps the lesson lighthearted and involves each participant in the &#39;chores&#39;. This is where you roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty, following step-by-step instructions to prepare your own batch of Moroccan bread dough. Once our dough is ready, we will visit the strategically located communal wood-burning oven (a ferran or frans) - a down-home authentic Moroccan experience. Until the 1980s, almost all Moroccan families made their own bread, and the frans is where the residents would mingle as they waited on their bread and pastries to bake.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>Fran was found in every neighborhood, and baked dozens of loafs at once many times a day. These can still be found and are still used by the local people in the old Medinas. As there were so many breads baking together, anything placed in the oven was marked with a rubber stamp, so each person would know which loaf was his/her own. This is the real deal and is a rather elaborate step-by-step preparation that pleases the eyes and the palate, so you will be happy to know that you are invited to savor both your own bread and the mint tea afterwards. Local condiments and handmade Moroccan cookies of the finest quality are also offered for tasting.</div><div><br data-mce-bogus='1'></div><div>You will also taste other Moroccan signature dishes which will be displayed at Blue Door.</div>

<p>Enjoy a culinary experience in Tangier during a bread and tea class.

The white contour of a church on a hilltop, the narrow streets of the old fishermen and tradesmen quarter, the presence of the sea and the immense beach known as Paria da Roch identify the character of Portimao. The old town is dominated by the architecture of the late 19th and 20th centuries: houses boasting wrought-iron balconies, ornate stonework around the windows and doors, balustrades of stone and tile-covered ceramics and walls. This southern Portuguese port is the gateway to many historic towns of the Algarve region. The town offers a rich heritage of historical monuments and the eternal natural beauty of the Ria de Alvor. Portimao is also known for its extraordinary Portuguese cuisine.
