A Taste of Mallorca: Places of Longing, Original Recipes and Insider Tips

$55 · Offered by Kitchen Arts & Letters

Written by an art historian turned journalist who has lived in Mallorca for a decade, this book combines recipes, restaurant profiles, and regional travel notes to offer a tempting portrait of the island’s contemporary food culture. Organized around different areas of Mallorca, the book highlights restaurants, cafes, markets, and producers alongside the landscapes that shape the local cuisine. More than seventy recipes gathered from chefs across the island reflect both traditional Mallorcan cooking and newer Mediterranean influences evident in places which have earned Michelin stars. Personal essays and short interviews accompany the dishes, offering insight into local ingredients, hospitality, and daily life beyond the island’s more familiar tourist routes. Illustrated throughout with photographs of kitchens, coastlines, and rural interiors, the book functions equally as a cookbook, travel guide, and visual survey of Mallorca’s evolving gastronomic identity. Hardcover. Color photographs throughout.
