There are two major gastronomic events taking place this April in Mallorca. The 25th Mostra de Cuina Mallorquina (Showcase of Mallorcan Cuisine) started on April 15th and ends on Sunday May 3rd, 2009. The format has changed this year – there are three routes over three periods across the whole of Mallorca.
The 6th Pollensa Wine Festival – Fira del Vi – takes place on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 of April in the Santo Domingo Cloister in Pollensa, Mallorca.

It’s been quite an intense five years of investigation for us! We have got to know so many excellent Mallorca Restaurants and their chefs. We have learned a lot about the gastronomy and culture of this island – and it really does have a lot to offer – from all that is grown and produced here (almonds, olives, figs, oranges, lemons, tomatoes, potatoes, artichokes, cabbage, asparagus and much more) to the huge variety of seasonal fish and seafood available, as well as the lamb and pork delicacies (sobrassada is the sausage that is traditionally made from the Mallorca black pig). The cheeses are very tasty – made on the island from sheep and goat’s milk. You won’t find too many cows here anymore, but we have spotted the odd ones on our travels! Wines are also a fabulous find – there are now about 300 wines produced on Mallorca, and many have won awards here and abroad. You’ll find a variety of Mallorca Wines offered in the over 200 Mallorca Restaurants that we have profiled on SkyBlue Mallorca: the most complete Food & Wine guide for Mallorca. Enjoy! Astrid and Anthony

At SkyBlue Mallorca we have discovered some of the BEST, and I mean THE best cakes in Palma de Mallorca, at Molt de Gust which means ‘with much flavour’ in mallorquín. Shown is a fig cake, but we also tried a rhubarb cake and a forest fruits cheese cake. Why not take a break from your christmas shopping in Palma with a visit to Molt de Gust. For more information and a map click on the link to Molt de Gust Palma Restaurants. They also offer a catering service and a very reasonable and delicious menu of the day.
