Where to eat out in Mallorca this weekend!

A Ma Maison is now open. | Laura Stadler

| Palma |

Well, it’s certainly been the warmest September I can remember. I am finding it so hot cooking at home. However, these balmy warm evenings are wonderful to enjoy dining on restaurant terraces and allow someone else to do the cooking. I know we all have our favourite eateries, but should you feel like great food somewhere different look no further. I have gathered some exceptional restaurants offering a variety of cuisine at varying prices. My personal choices for quality food in lovely surroundings.
