Product Description
Product Description
This pocket-sized full-colour guide is designed for short-break holidays on Mallorca with a gastronomic touch. Even if you're not a walker, it's worth having just for the restaurant suggestions, the excursions and the information about local food.The book describes two excursions for all-comers (including the 'wild west' train to Soller and boat trip along the north coast), plus 10 easy to fairly strenuous walks, all illustrated with 1:35,000 topographical maps. Each excursion or walk recommends at least one restaurant en route serving local cuisine, with photograph, price guide, opening times, sample menus, and recipes for some of their specialities. Other sections include: planning your trip, getting about, food shopping (including health foods and local markets), glossary of food terms and restaurant mini-vocabulary. A special feature is the emphasis on natural local foods suitable for those with food intolerances. All recipes have been made by the authors and are known to 'work'. On-line updates keep readers abreast of route/restaurant changes. "Sunflower have led the field for years with their brilliant Landscapes walking and car touring guides. Now, they have raised their game even higher...The Mallorca guide is a real delight." (Frank Barrett, Mail on Sunday)

5.0 out of 5 stars
handy insightful book,
By Hasta Manana "snootchikate" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Walk and Eat Mallorca (Walk & Eat) (Paperback)
This book is easy to read and inspirational. It opens up a whole new Mallorca and offers the oportunity to go off the beaten track and discover wonderful views, and taste fabulous authentic food. You can even re-reate some of the meals back home on a cold wet British evening when you are missing beautiful Mallorca. Great investment for any Mallorcan traveller who wants to explore.

Walk and Eat Mallorca,
By Clare L (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Walk and Eat Mallorca (Walk & Eat) (Paperback)
This book was a nice to browse and I enjoyed looking at the recipes. It has good walks in it with good directions. However, it does not include anything new. All the walks were included in other walking books that we already had. If you want to go walking in Mallorca I would recommend getting a standard walking book as it will give you a greater choice of walks.

Walks, restaurants and recipes - what a great idea!,
By
This review is from: Walk and Eat Mallorca (Walk & Eat) (Paperback)
You can't go wrong with this book, as long as you start by benchmarking your timings and gradings against one of the easier walks, and bear in mind that both restaurants and footpaths can change rapidly. Of the half dozen suggestions that we tested, we only had trouble finding the way once and we always found a very pleasant restaurant at the place indicated, although one had obviously changed management (and lost some of the unusual 'specials') and one had changed cuisine (from Mallorcan to Italian). It's very tempting to spend your evenings using the book to plan ahead, rather than trying the recipes out 'in situ', but the bonus is that you've still got them when you get home.
