Dinner cooked by an active volcano

A restaurant in the Canary Islands is taking barbequing to a whole new level.
Rather than relying on fire, electricity or natural gas, chefs at El Diablo heat their meat over a still-active volcano.
The one-of-a-kind grill is not spewing with lava (it hasn’t erupted since 1824); instead an iron grate sits over a circular basalt pit that funnels the earth’s natural heat to the surface, where temperatures range between 400C and 600C.
