Nicole Kidman has returned to the media spotlight following reports of her separation from Keith Urban after 19 years of marriage. The couple, who married in June 2006, reportedly decided to end their relationship, which produced two daughters: Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14.
In January 2023, during a stay in Mallorca to film the series Lioness alongside Morgan Freeman, Laysla De Oliveira, and Zoe Saldana, the Australian actress visited El Camino, a central restaurant in Palma, twice. According to the restaurant, both visits were in the evening and made without prior reservation.
During her meals, Kidman showed a keen interest in local Mediterranean cuisine, sampling signature dishes such as pa amb oli (traditional Mallorcan bread with olive oil and tomato), calçots (grilled spring onions), octopus, and courgette flowers. These choices reflect the restaurant’s focus on high-quality tapas and fresh, local ingredients.
El Camino, open Tuesday through Saturday from 1pm to 3.45pm and 6pm to 10,45pm, features a distinctive layout with an extended marble counter facing an open kitchen. Diners seated on stools can watch the chefs at work, creating an immersive culinary experience popular with both locals and tourists.
The restaurant’s commitment to using fresh, seasonal produce has made it a standout in Mallorca’s culinary scene. Its menu changes throughout the year to make the most of available ingredients, maintaining the quality that attracts high-profile guests like Kidman.
The 57-year-old actress was in Mallorca filming Lioness, adding to her impressive television portfolio, which includes Big Little Lies and The Undoing. During her time on the island, she balanced her professional work with exploring the local gastronomy.
