Michelin-starred tasting menu of updated Mallorcan classics

























"Palma has an enviable fine-dining scene, and DINS Santi Taura, inside a luxurious hotel near the cathedral, is leading the way. The tasting menu brings classic Mallorcan recipes up to date in farm-to-table style, and pairs them with top-notch wines. Book the chef’s table slot if you want to sit at the bar and watch the team prepare each of the 11 courses. The menu changes depending on the time of year, but expect beautiful dishes with firmly Mallorcan roots served on handmade ceramic crockery: razorfish with fried eggs, prawns with sobrassada, and homemade olive oil and bread with Menorcan butter." - isabella noble

"Another alternative is DINS Santi Taura, in the lively El Llorenç Parc de la Mar hotel. Awarded One MICHELIN Star, the restaurant boasts an open kitchen which allows a limited number of diners to observe the preparation of Chef Santi Taura's traditional yet modern dishes. Based on local produce of exceptional quality, the 'Origen' tasting menu, which is reinvented each season, encapsulates the different flavors of the island." - The MICHELIN Guide

"Located amid the attractive surroundings of Palma’s cathedral, on the ground floor of the attractive El Llorenç Parc de la Mar boutique hotel.In the elegant, contemporary style dining room, chef Santi Taura demonstrates his passion for traditional Mallorcan cuisine, taking everyday recipes from the islands and bringing them up to date, using native ingredients and prioritising flavour over and above anything else. He presides over a single tasting menu called Origens (11 courses, although another three courses can also be added) which changes in line with the seasons and takes us on a journey across the island, so that we can discover its traditions and ingredients through his creativity. The chef also enjoys passing from one table to the next before the meal to chat with his guests." - Michelin Inspector

"Housed in a 1,000-year-old building inside El Llorenç Parc de la Mar, DINS by Santi Taura felt to me like perhaps the most authentically Mallorcan dining experience on the island: Taura incorporates local culinary history at every turn—from an oven discovery that led him to pottery and to plating his 11-course blind tasting on dishes he makes himself, to seasonally shifting menus that include ancient-flour bread served as a digestif, an empanada made without pork fat in nod to Jewish heritage, and a 1700s fish-and-peas recipe—while even the final desserts can arrive garnished with flowers from his own garden." - Samantha Brooks
