Puerto de la Cruz punches way above its weight and has somewhere in the region of 300 restaurants from which to choose. In our biased opinion, it's the best resort on Tenerife for eating out...

Can you name a pretty fishing village/town on Tenerife? I can't think of a single one. Not pretty in the way Greek fishing villages are drop dead gorgeous with quaint harbours filled with turquoise water
There some four star hotels on Tenerife which really should be described as four star plus. The award winning Riu Garoe in Puerto de la Cruz is one of them.
Whilst there are still some locations in the Canary Islands where vegetarians struggle for choice – 'you can always eat an omelette' doesn't count as choice – Puerto de la Cruz in the north of Tenerife isn't one of them.
Puerto de la Cruz is a good hunting ground for belenes, apart from some shops displaying them, there's always the equivalent of a belen one-stop shop in Casa Ventoso.
I have never asked for egg and chips in a restaurant on Tenerife. Yet I've lost count of the number of times I've ended up with just that in Canarian restaurants.
We didn't realise how important walking/hiking was to Tenerife until we read some official statistics provided by Turismo de Tenerife recently.
If you're near Puerto de la Cruz on the eve of 17 October we'd really recommend going to the Noche en Blanco which takes place throughout the town from 6pm till 2 the following morning.
We've written before about Tenerife after dark and that to get to know a town, you have to experience what it's like when the sun toddles off to bed.
We've wanted to eat in Tierra de Jamon since it opened. Places with rows of hanging hams always appeal. They've got that old school Spanish tasca look about them...
