Palma Congress Center, supporting local gastronomy
Last December, Meliá Palma Bay hotel hosted the presentation of the book ‘Receptes de cuina mallorquina, plats d’avui i d’ahir’, edited by Cadena SER Mallorca and Disset.
After the success of 'El llibre del variat mallorquí', one of the most emblematic dishes of the Mallorcan cuisine (the “variat”), the new book has come out with the collaboration of the Palma Congress Center, committed to local culture and the promotion of the island's food.
This gastronomic event has been attended by the Insular Director of Tourism, Lucia Escribano; the deputy mayor of Culture, Antoni Noguera; the director of Cadena SER Mallorca, Josep Roquer, and the general director of Disset, Antoni Pons, among others.
In addition, local chefs such as Toni Piña or Miguel Gelabert participated in a round table on Mallorcan cuisine to claim for local traditions.
The book of Mallorcan recipes reveals the secrets and techniques of several chefs on the island in dishes such as pork, Mallorcan soup, Mallorcan fried or corns.
