The Miniature Enyesque Congresss by Arrecife-Lanzarote is the first edition of a gastronomic festival, an exchange between Lanzarote and Euskadi (Basque Country) in the art of creating “enyesques” or “pintxos”, which is what “tapas” are called colloqually in both regions, respectively.
It started on the 7th of April and it will last until the 23rd of the same month. It includes a choc-a-block programme of activities to showcase produce and wines from both regions and it’s mainly split up into three sections:
From the 7th to 20th: the Contest of Enyesques with participating establishments across the island where their chefs offer an “enyesque” of their creation and a winner is chosen by popular vote, very much like the traditional “tapas” tours in Lanzarote. The price of each dish is €2.50.
From 21st to 23rd: the Miniature Enyesque Congress 2022 at Islote de Fermina in Arrecife including conferences,masterclass and the championship’s awards ceremony.
On the 22nd and the 23rd: the Dinners Experience at the Castillo de San José in Arrecife with an extensive menu of dishes created by chefs from Lanzarote on the 22nd and from the Basque Country on the 23rd, maridated with wines from each respective region.
We have included below both the confirmed enyesques taking part on the Championship and the menus from the Dinners Experience:
