Palma de Mallorca Luglio 2009

This was my first real trip.

I don't know, how did you feel about taking the first plane, did you also feel that unique excitement?

Even today, after landing I feel like a child who has just come down from the rides, enchanted .. in love!

Something inside me says "AGAIN, AGAIN!"

I had chosen a hotel that overlooks the sea in Can Pastilla.

Rodes Hotel.

The hotel is on the left, and coming out this is what you find. Beautiful, is not it?

I spent a week here about 90% of the dinners near the Butterfly Restaurant, at the Restorante De Fritura.

There is Nando who is very nice and very friendly.

A great place where I have been one evening is El Ancla, that is a place with Arabic and oriental features, entering you will find carpets everywhere.

Very good cocktails and the owner very friendly.

If you love fun and music, you have to go absolutely to the Tito's Mallorca International Club and to the Mega-Park.

The most famous place to eat are the cellars, which take their name from the old restaurants housed in the places where the wine was produced and stored. The best known are in Sineu, Inca and Petra.

Trempó

La trempó is the classic summer salad, made with tomatoes, garlic, olives, vinegar, salt, red pepper.

L'Arròs Brut

Arròs Brut is a dish made with rice and a lot of meat, added to some vegetables. The paella here is called Arròs sec, but rest assured that in the tourist restaurant you will find paella written.

Frit Mallorquí

Characteristic of Mallorca is the Frit Mallorquí, also known as Freixura, made with fried offal and accompanied by fried potatoes or vegetables.

The Spanish charcuterie tradition takes us from Sobrasa, pork with lots of paprika.

The king of sweets on the table is the ensaïmada, a spiral made with saim, which is pork fat.
