                <description><![CDATA[We went to Mallorca for 2 weeks and this was the best food we ate while we were there.<br><br>It's a small restaurant, seating maybe 20 at the most - it's business card says, Bistro, Cocina de Mercado.<br><br>The food was amazing - they have a fixed 5 course menu that changes each month for 22.50 Euros and it was just incredible: I remember mostly the caramelised pate, chicken and asparagus in filo, there was a fish dish, and a beautiful desert that had fresh strawberry or raspberry sorbet.<br><br>Much better than the restaurant at Hotel Portixol by a coutry mile or three.<br><br>I'm thinking of going back every month.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A small modern restaurant near the heart of Palma. Modern European cooking, reasonably priced and absolutely fanatastic flavours. Large board with specialities plus regular menu. Vegetarians catered for but the fish dishes are excellent and the sauces some of the best I have tasted. A truly memorable eating experience. Try it!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Largely undeveloped inlet, accessible by road but, thanks to Robert Graves, coach parties are banned here. The beach is stony, but the swimming is safe. Eat fresh fish caught by the local fishermen at Can Lluc restaurant, right on the beach, then stretch your legs on the lovely stretch of coastal path between Cala de Deìa and Alconassar.]]></description>

Go down to the fishing port and have lunch in the restaurant there after a dip (beware the jellyfish). <br><br>In the evening try Son Moragues - most beautiful restaurant setting I've ever seen. Stay in 'Es Petit Valldemossa' hotel in the heart of the village. In the morning have a coca de patata with a coffee. This is my paradise.]]></description>

It is wonderful for walking, browsing and shopping.<br><br>The architecture is splendid, it abounds in cafes, restaurants, dancing, nightclubs etc. The beaches and yacht marinas are part of the city.

Go in the mornings when the market is open to have a peek and have a coffee in the very friendly Cafe Isleño, most nearby restaurants are very good.]]></description>
