This all creates and snowballs down a wonderful food culture at all levels - and levels more on our normal price bracket

Re: Sociedad(s) in our area?
We also remember that well, it was a fabulous afternoon, I seem to remember you had to be a card holder or as you say by invitation only. When we asked about getting a membership card they just gave a wry smile and shook their head. Very much a closed shop methinks, but as Jon says an experience we shall never forget.

We had lunch with our Spanish friends, one of whom is a several generations an Ayamontean (sp) - they aren't aware of any sociedads here. They also thought it was more of a Northern Spain thing, but couldn't explain why there is one in Lanzarote and why the BBC said they were common on the mainland.
Oh well... cant have it all!

Hi Mike
Search for Sociedades gastronómicas .
There are mainly from the Basque Country . I suppose there are basque people living in lanzarote
I´m afraid that there are not secret sociedades
