Listen to the last episode:
Food lover and broadcaster Jan Edwards returns to talk winter on the island: staying at La Residencia in Deià, why Peccata Minuta is worth tracking down, the tapas trail TaPalma, Port Adriano’s Food Passion weekends, and a clutch of great value places from Palma to Felanitx and Son Ferrer. Expect practical tips, price-savvy picks, and how to actually find out what is on.
A birthday stay at La Residencia, Deià. What makes the service special, Miró artworks, and choosing between El Olivo’s tasting menus and Restaurante Miró’s à la carte.
Quiet-season culture in Deià and why small exhibitions and concerts are part of the charm.
Peccata Minuta by Chefs(in): how the token system works, why it draws local food lovers, and how to keep an eye out for dates.
Inca in autumn: cloister venues, fairs and why the train beats driving on big festival days such as Dijous Bo.
How to navigate TaPalma when information is sparse, plus the case for neighbourhood-by-neighbourhood routes.
Port Adriano’s Food Passion weekends in November and why fixed-price menus help you try new kitchens.
Palma fine dining: Izakaya and the “date-night” test.
Finding out what is on: The Calendar Mallorca for daily listings, SóllerWeb for Sóller valley updates.
Seasonal chat: Thanksgiving options, the challenge of booking Christmas lunch in Mallorca, and why private chefs can be a smart solution.
