Mongolian BBQ

Not just a meal, The Mongolian BBQ restaurant, Los Cristianos, is guaranteed to dazzle senses that other restaurants don't reach. Jaw-dropping, mouthwatering, spectacular and great value for money, this is Tenerife dining with a capital D.

You'll have guessed by the name of this Los Cristianos restaurant that this is no ordinary eatery - far from it. From the moment you stomp through the entrance you're transported into a world of Genghis Khan, eastern exotica and a battleground of steaming, sizzling dishes.

If you've never experienced a Mongolian BBQ before (and I'm guessing not many have), expect a fusion of flavours featuring a heavy dose of Asian, a dash of Chinese and a noticeable sprinkling of Russian.

You add your own spin by choosing from a selection of fresh meats, seafood, vegetables, savoury sauces and colourful spices before taking it to the skilled chefs who will delicately hack at it with metre-long blades while stir frying it in ceiling-high flames.

So what makes it Mongolian? Well, this style of cooking is similar to how the warriors of Genghis Khan used to heat their shields over open fires to grill food on the battlefield.

For those who prefer a little more pondering over their preferences, the Mongolian BBQ restaurant also offers an enticing a la carte menu, plus a range of less exotic options for those in your part with a preference for the more familiar.
