Culinary specialties typical of Mallorca
The colourful fruit and vegetables that are harvested in Mallorca taste like intense sunshine. In your private holiday apartment in
Paguera, you will have a large kitchen to prepare the island's specialties. Majorcan cuisine delights with Mediterranean herbs. Try pan tumaca, a bread with garlic and tomatoes. Freshly cooked is half the battle. That's why fresh ingredients go into the pan in Mallorca. The popular paella is highly sought after and a favourite among guests. Typically, rice, seafood, and fish are used for the famous pan dish from Mallorca. Sopas mallorquinas are appetizers mixed with toasted bread cubes. In many restaurants on Mallorca or your affordable holiday apartment in Pollensa, sopas mallorquinas are in demand as a main course. Porcella rostida, suckling pig grilled on a wood oven, is just as delicious as lomo con col: pork loin is wrapped in cabbage leaves and braised with blood sausage. The famous almond cake and the snail-shaped ensaimadas make a sweet dessert. The exclusive Port d'Andratx harbour and Cala Fonol beach in southwestern Mallorca are coveted places to stroll, live, and dine. How about a delicious dinner here?

Sóller is an awe-inspiring discovery. Before that, two reservoirs need to be tackled before you are rewarded with a panoramic view. The railway is a good alternative to experience the beauty of Sóller's valley as a whole. Are you interested in the history of the region?
