Fantastic Michelin star experience, showcasing mallorcan and Catalonian cuisine. Getting there - go down to the end of alleyway and it's just to the right next to Goa. The meal is divided up to three acts. Little amuse bouche to tease the appetite out of you leaving you lingering with curiosity. The second act is glorious with the best dishes of the house. The third act is dessert - mostly disappointing, with molecular gastronomy applied whenever possible. The best dishes are: Bittersweet aubergines with fois gras and foam - phenomenal. Fantastic balance of salty richness, soft luscious eggplant, and light and fluffy foam, all with a hint of subtle spice underneath. Crayfish cooked on hot rocks. Simplicity is the key here. Large crayfish from the sea is cooked on fire on hot rocks. Then served with this incredible sauce. Cow/steak tartare with aged blue cheese - aged beef for 60 days with a bit of blue cheese and tart apple. Phenomenal. The right texture from the steak tartare with creaminess from the blue cheese. Get the wine pairing with the meal. I especially enjoyed the Mosel Riesling (Schloss Lieser 2015) with smoked tomatoes (tomatoes in mallorca are good but still subpar to Sardinia or other regions in Italy) and bittersweet aubergine with fois gras, as well as the Can Xanet 2012 (Merlot, Syrah, mantenegro) with the steak tartare. read more

For an absolute incredible dining experience from a Michelin Star Chef, Tomeu Caldentey, you must visit his restaurant Es Moli d'en Bou, in Mallorca, Spain. Me and my ex, who's from and lives in Manacor, Mallorca, Spain, went to Sa Coma Playa Hotel and Resort for holiday. We had an amazing opportunity to eat at arguably one of the best restaurants in all of Mallorca. Tomeu Caldentey is the only Mallorcan, Michelin Star chef in the world. Since we were staying at the resort on holiday booking reservations was alot easier than I anticipated. However, because of the nature of the success & popularity of Es Moli d'en Bou, you usually have to book your reservations in advance. Firstly, the staff is absolutely incredible, friendly, curtious, and extremely knowledgeable about the menu and specials. The ambience was amazing, and the restaurant is impecably clean. The entire dining experience is quite theatrical, it's just more than dining, it's lliterally a public exhibition of culinary entertainment. Tomeu is an absolute gastronomic god. There's no adjectives one can use to accurately describe each and everyone one of his dishes. Our meal consisted of 11 courses, and the food was sublime, with some of the greatest wines I've ever had....amazing selections. We were honestly there for almost 4 hours, for our complete meal and dessert. While you typically get approximately 5 different wines with your courses, we actually decided to try a few extra ones, and I reckon we ended up tasting approximately 7, based on the recommendations of of the sommelier, yeah, we paid in the bum quite a bit, for the extra wine, but it was worth every Euro. I believe Es Moli d'en Bou has a policy on no young children at the restaurant, however, when me and me ex-girlfriend were there, we did see a few young tots sitting at tables wiv their families. So if you have any kids, you might want to check into that. The portions are quite small, but for heavens sake, your getting 11 of them, depending upon what menu selection you make. Believe me, by the 7th course, I began to pray that I could continue this journey. You will definitely not go home hungry or with any euros left. I just wanted to try everything, since this was a once in a lifetime experience. My favourite dish was the slow cooked beef, which is cooked in a vaccum for 8 hours, then lightly caramelized and then steamed wiv this absolutely incredble smoke, packed wiv all types of local herbs. Unfortunately it wasn't a whoppin' 12-14 oz piece of meat :), it was a rather small portion; but the taste was huge in flavour. Tomeu Caldentey actually will come around to your table and greet you and ask about the food, a really nice touch and a really nice chef. The prices are not cheap at all....but you absolutely get what you pay for. A culinary experience that you will never forget. To this day I can remember vividly exactly every second of this incredible fine dining event. Oh by the way, the final damage was 290 euros! But the memories are priceless. read more
