This week sees the first edition of the ‘Foro de Turismo y Gastronomia’ being held at restaurants in Palma de Mallorca. The festival hopes to promotes Palma’s many restaurants as well as its local Mediterranean/Mallorcan cuisine by offering specially priced menus at lunch and dinner at some of the best restaurants in the capital.
All menus on offer either cost 15 or 25 euros and there are 35 participating restaurants to choose from.
It looks like Gin & Tonic will once again be the trendiest drink of choice this season in Mallorca! Gin & Tonic has been gaining popularity with the influx of premium gins at bars and restaurants over the last couple of years.
If you would like some tips on how to make your G&T a cut above the rest, go along to Corb Mari Restaurant this Saturday, 12th of May for a Gin & Tonic workshop presented by none other than ‘The Best Sommelier in the Balearics’; Toni Fernández.
Toni is not only very talented when it comes to wines and alcoholic beverages, but he is also extremely entertaining, so this promises to be a fun and educational way to spend an evening!
Corb Mari Restaurant is one of the Port of Pollensa’s best meat restaurants, so why not stay on afterwards for a tasty meal? To book your place on the course and for more information, please contact Corb Mari on 971 867 040.
