Eating Chinese food in Lanzarote: What you need to know
The kitchens usually open around 6 pm and cater more for holidaymakers than for locals. Occasionally, a set lunch menu costs between 10 and 13 euros, whilst prices rise noticeably in the evening. Card payments are accepted in most restaurants, and tips range from five to ten per cent. In August, as well as at Christmas and Easter, the Beijing Chinese Restaurant and the Peking Duck fill up quickly, so it’s a good idea to book a table at these two restaurants. The Wok Santa Rosa on Av. del Mar in Costa Teguise received the highest number of reviews, with 1,247.
Tips for your visit
The Chinese restaurants are tucked away in the streets behind the beach promenades, often next to small shops and blocks of flats. Of the island’s 575 restaurants, these establishments are concentrated in Arrecife. There, the Fuji Wok is on Calle Tenderete, whilst the Jufu Restaurant on Calle Guenia is situated closer to the harbour on the east coast. The menus feature Cantonese classics alongside dishes tailored to European tastes.
Playa Blanca boasts two such establishments along Avenida Marítima: the Jumbo Chinese at number 111 and a takeaway service at number 92. Red lanterns hang in some of the dining areas, whilst duck, spring rolls and fried noodles grace the plates. Among the island’s 213 bars, some drinks menus even feature Malvasia from La Geria alongside Chinese tea.
