The Triciclo restaurant, has been a huge discovery for us. Eating yummy at good price is being complicated in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and they have made it possible. In their menu they offer creative cuisine. They mix in some of their dishes food that you have never tasted together. Moreover, the service is VERY good and quick. They are located at Vegueta, the old town. It is not a restaurant which has been there the whole life, but its incorporation to the city gastronomic offer has been well received for each one of the people who have tried it and talked about it.
Triciclo restaurant menu
The Triciclo restaurant offer almost all type of food: appetizers to share, salads, rices, fish and meat. As they mention, all meats are local. They also offer some Canarian dishes as the “Polvito”, which is a dessert. Or the “papas carbón”, which are boiled potatoes. Very similar to the Canarian “papas arrugadas”. Anyway, to eat here we recommend you to order some dishes to share. So that you can try more things and it’s worth it.
We recommend you the crayfish croquettes with pear ali oli. If you order the big size dish you will also get a crayfish over the croquettes as shown below. Pure flavor!
In the same way, you should order the potato salad with mayonnaise and grilled octopus. In this place they truly prepare it delicious. Don’t forget to order some bread with it!
We also recommend you the beach calamari with cabbage risotto. It comes with some arugula and Parmesan cheese. We have never tried this food together before and, to be honest, it has been a great success. Do not miss it!
If you feel like eating some meat, the Cachopo with Iberian ham and brie cheese is awesome. It comes with crunchy home made potatoes and a delicious sauce. As it is served in a hot, it doesn’t get cold quickly.
Desserts
Let’s continue with the desserts. All of them are so tasty, but the almond blossom with yoghurt ice-cream and red fruits soup is AWESOME. One of the best desserts we have ever tried. Order it!
