                <description><![CDATA[We found this friendly little bar/cafe whilst in Menorca this year. It's in the shadow of a hotel called Mar De Menorca but holds its own where food is concerned. The food was a real taste of home, we could tell it was home made and it was  really tasty. The reason we felt the need to post this tip is the family who run Chepas are so friendly and went out of there way to make us welcome. Good food, good drink.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This is an authentic Spanish restaurant with a very friendly staff, local products, a good cook, no-nonsense food (we had a wonderfully fresh dorade for two) and all the things you will appreciate in contrast to the fast-food dominated tourism industry on the Balearic Islands. <br><br>The restaurant has just closed for the winter. I suppose it will open again on May 1st, 2008. Give it a try!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The harbour at Mahon is one of the biggest deep-water harbours in the world and it was here that the British anchored fleets from 1713 onwards as it was of enormous strategic importance in control of the Mediterranean. Was this why the gin industry flourished so much on the island? <br><br>Our word for the sauce we traditionally pour over many of our dishes comes from here, “grevi” and later entered our language via the British Navy.  <br><br>Mahon cheese is one of the great Spanish cheeses and is as good as any on the mainland. It is a cow’s milk cheese and is the island’s biggest export. And ice cream. The island is famous for this product. The flavours are infinitely variable. My favourite, Pistachio and Almonds.]]></description>
