A volcano might not be the most conventional way to cook food, but at theTimanfaya National Park on the island of Lanzarote off the coast of Spain, that’s exactly how they cook at El Diablo Restaurant.
Named after “the devil,” the eatery has been in business since 1970.
Diners can choose from a variety of meat and fish dishes barbecued on a grill heated to between 450 to 500 degrees Celsius using geothermal heat from the volcano.
Because it was impossible to build a conventional cooking system that could withstand the heat of a volcano, architects Eduardo Caceres and Jesus Soto used nine layers of volcanic basalt rock to make the grill.
