San Sebastián de la Gomera


San Sebastián's most creative recipes are plated up in a rustic-chic upper-floor dining room, where you might try smartly presented, Canarian-inspired avocado-and-artichoke salad with ibérico ham, bite-sized goat's-cheese 'chocolates' or beef sirloin in a port sauce. The stylish white courtyard, decked with contemporary artwork, is a great spot for a cocktail or artisan beer.
