MALLORCA
FOOD AND DRINK
Eating
out in Mallorca is, on the whole, an inexpensive and enjoyable experience
with hundreds of restaurants to choose from. These range from the usual
fast food outlets in the big tourist resorts, to all manner of international
cuisine including Japanese Sushi, Mexican, Indian, Thai, French and Chinese.
Genuine Balearic food also deserves a mention and there are numerous tapas
bars and restaurants serving the local sopas mallorquines (a hearty broth
containing port and vegetables), Asados de lechona (roast suckling pig)
or lomo con col (pork with cabbage) to name but a few. Other Spanish dishes
including paella and gazpacho are also widely available.
Hundreds
of bars and cafes can be found on Mallorca, many of which stay open throughout
the day and night. These normally serve all types of drink from beverages
to beer, wine and spirits. Many also provide various snacks and pastries,
including Ensaimadas a traditional Mallorquin pastry filled with cream.
