In every town and village visitors can expect flavoursome authentic fare, whether simple pa amb oli (bread, cheese and cold cuts with tomatoes and olive oil), or creative menus featuring organic dishes and excellent Majorcan wines. In all, there has never been a better time for a culinary tour of this Mediterranean gem.

Toth grows his own organic vegetables and passionately supports local producers. He makes his own rich and crunchy Carob flour bread, and is meticulous with detail. His tuna tataki with avocado rolls and confit onions is a winner, as is the tender lamb, slow roasted for 14 hours. The scrumptious à la carte menu changes according to the seasonal fare available.

Restaurante Sebastián
This 31-year-old restaurant occupies a converted 250-year-old stable, now a contemporary and atmospheric space with an inviting and cosy terrace.

Inspired desserts include apple tart with Suau brandy ice-cream and chocolate ganache.
Llubí

Just a few minutes' drive from Muro's sandy beach, this stylish and modern restaurant has an internal leafy patio, open kitchen and glass-fronted wine cellar.
Canyamel
Voro
This much vaunted gastronomic den, squirrelled away in the extensive grounds of the Cap Vermell Grand Hotel, is some distance from Palma but for a two-starred Michelin fine dining experience, its many devotees think it's worth the schlep.

Both the menú del día and weekend menu offer exceptional value for creative Majorcan gastronomy, the hallmarks of which are local seasonal and sustainable produce. Highlights include artichoke, prawns and sobrassada sausage with apricot sauce, a lip-smackingly good mixed paella and lamb terrine with carob sauce and sweet potato.
Ses Salines
Casa Monolo
A cosy and authentic restaurant, Casa Manolo harks back to 1945 when the founders opened a grocery selling wines and spirits.

Specials include salt-baked fish, Notari rice and rich lobster stew. Much of the fish is locally-sourced with some seafood brought in from Galicia. The attractive two-storey building includes an atmospheric ground floor with hanging hams and a pretty terrace.

I stayed in a floating yacht hotel in Europe – we had champagne breakfasts on a budget and even spotted celebs

DAVID WALLIAMS was sitting at the next table offering to massage a newlywed couple. First morning aboard the Sunborn floating hotel in Gibraltar and the professional extrovert was in full character, engaging with star-struck holidaymakers as only he can, with a twinkle in his eye. 6 6 6 We arrived too late the night before to catch the Little Britain comic's one-man show at a sports centre but apparently it went down a storm. He has already asked to return for November's literary festival, and it's no surprise. Gibraltar has for so long been pigeonholed as a stopover for day trippers. Passengers on the 250-odd cruise ships that briefly moor under the Rock's majestic presence dash around to see a few sights but mainly aim to take advantage of the VAT-free shopping. It's a trend the local tourist board is working hard to reverse. They want travellers to take more time fully taking in the surprisingly large number of things to do on a tiny sun-kissed slab of Britain at the mouth of the Med. And when beer is just £3.75 a pint, why not stay longer to enjoy? Secret bunker Gibraltar's gripping history has a deep association with our Armed Forces. The Royal Engineers were founded here in the 18th century and practically built the place. The honeycomb of tunnels dug by clever sappers during World War Two offers a fascinating insight into the work of our determined Armed Forces and the strategic importance of Gibraltar during the conflict. In one cavern hangs a full-size replica of a legendary Spitfire fighter plane. There is also the spine-chilling story of the Stay Behind Cave — the once secret bunker carved into the heart of the mountain, complete with provisions for a year and a bicycle generator. An elite group of patriotic volunteers agreed to be sealed off from the outside world for a year and spy on the Axis powers, should Gibraltar get overrun — the ultimate one-way ticket in the line of duty. From the exotic Moorish times, through the centuries of the British Empire and beyond, there are tours to take and a bloody back story to hear in the name of entertainment. Strait of Gibraltar Tunnel: A New Bridge Between Continents My wife and I stayed four nights on the permanently moored Sunborn yacht hotel, anchored flush against the dockside of Gibraltar's Ocean Village. It's a 5H joint, and the food and service reflects that. Yet even in high season, a spacious double room with a large window can be yours for £185 a night, including champagne breakfast. Step ashore and you can be seated in one of many lively bars with giant outdoor screens beaming major sports from back home. If that's not for you, just 50 yards away is Little Bay Restaurant — a vibrant Indian fusion eaterie where bubbly manager Kelly welcomes you with warm cockney charm, before delicately blended curries combined with zingy cocktails top off an early summer evening. Gibraltar's biggest attraction in every sense is the looming mound of limestone that dominates everything here. Get to the top via the scenic cable car and peer down from the stomach-churning Skywalk 1,400 feet above the sparkling sea — opened by Luke Skywalker, aka Mark Hamill, himself. Take in the view across the Straits, a 15-mile- wide blue chasm separating Europe from North Africa — which David Walliams heroically swam in aid of Sport Relief in 2008. The Northern Defences are also worth a visit. This cavernous labyrinth of tunnels has been added to over time, since the eighth century. Our guide, Karl Viagas, is steadfastly uncovering more historical treasures underground that will be spectacular when fully open. 6 6 6 James Bond creator Ian Fleming was stationed here with Naval Intelligence, and daring undersea attacks on the Allied fleet by Italian scubamen in the war fuelled his already vivid imagination for future books and movies. And in true 007 style, we were accompanied by a glamorous former Miss World who would grace any Bond movie. Kaiane Aldorino, former Mayor of Gibraltar, is now an ambassador for the territory. Sunshine, cheap beer and a beauty queen for company — plus you can spend British pounds. But like many places, travel and the natural world can often rub each other up the wrong way. Gibraltar's playful macaque monkeys are funny to watch for a time but have become a way for taxi drivers to make a few easy quid. The roads at the top of the rock were clogged with cabbies queuing to feed junk food to these wild animals in return for them doing tricks. Far better to join Brian Gomila on his Monkey Talk tour in the kinder environment of the surrounding trees. And if you really want to go green, join Stuart at EBike-Gibraltar. Power-assisted cycling on a lap around the base of the rock is easy on the legs and the eyes as you stop off at small fishing villages with inviting beaches. There's a lot of fun to be had too. A dizzying gin-tasting session at the Spirit Of The Rock distillery was as enlightening as it was alcoholic. David Walliams might agree, it's Little Britain — but with Spanish style and weather.

The 15 food capitals of the world right now, revealed

What are the culinary capitals of the world? We have some ideas: our annual list of the world's best cities for food is based on a survey of 18,500 locals, who all shared their take on the quality and affordability of their city's dining scene. While we think locals know best, Japanese rail ticket provider JR Pass has carried out some pretty comprehensive research to unveil its own ranking of the world's best food cities – it wouldn't hurt to look, would it? The study evaluated everything from the number of five-star restaurants, Michelin-guide spots, food-based attractions and national dishes to the Global Food Security Index and the average meal price for two, crowning (drum roll, please) Paris as the foodie champion. No, we aren't shocked either. The French capital has more Michelin-guide and five-star rated restaurants than any other city on the ranking, proudly serves a whopping 12 national dishes and averages a fairly reasonable £58.85 for a two-person meal. Want to know our favourite food spots in the French capital? Time Out Paris has roundups of the best cheap eats, veggie spots, bistros, romantic spaces, brunch stops and top restaurants overall – tuck in. In second place was Athens, and in third place was Tokyo, but the likes of Ljubljana, Seoul and Reykjavik also made this ranking. Read on for the top 15. These are the world's 15 top foodie capitals, according to JR Pass Paris Athens Tokyo Zurich Amsterdam Prague Brussels Dublin Madrid Ljubljana London Seoul Copenhagen Reykjavik Riga Fill your boots with more food news Whether it's news of a new Aperol spritz index or snaps from the World Food Photography Awards, a shiny new list of the best pizzerias, or the best restaurants on the planet overall, we can bet Time Out's travel news page will keep you satisfied.

Inside Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright's £1,300 a night luxurious Spanish holiday resort hidden away in the countryside with baby daughter Palma

With suites costing £1,350 a night and everything you could need within its grounds, it's no wonder Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright chose a reclusive hotel hidden away in the Spanish countryside for their first holiday with baby daughter Palma. The new parents, who welcomed baby Palma in March, are staying at the five-star Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel in Andalusia. First opened in 1962, today Sotogrande is considered to be one of the most luxurious hotels in Europe. Each room at the resort has a modern, contemporary design featuring art by local artists and boasts its own private balcony or terrace. Michelle and Mark are likely to be enjoying the SO/Suite, which is an impressive 1,001 sqft room, with separate living and sleeping areas. With its king size bed and a sofa bed, a ultra-relaxing rain shower, the room looks out at the stunning Resort Gardens while daylight also floods the room with floor-to-ceiling windows. A stay in the suite will cost approximately £1,350 a night, while twin rooms at the resort are £300. Sotogrande's spa hosts an addictive view of the Mediterranean Sea and features a Hammam, sauna and indoor pool. Its wellness centre offers a state-of-the-art gym, a 'Beauty Grooming Boutique' and treatment cabins. With three restaurants and multiple bars on-site, the resort also offers numerous activities within its grounds, such as their Beach Club that offers a coastal experience, an infinity bar, shopping boutiques, horse riding and polo, racquet and cycling. In a message to guests on their website, the hotel says: 'We're bringing it back with local craftsmanship, contemporary art, and handpicked décor. 'This is a modern luxury retreat with a very special local energy.' Sotogrande is also home to two nine-hole courses, with its third currently being transformed into a state-of-the-art golfing academy, as well as an infinity pool, numerous drinking and eating establishments and a spa with everything you could want. MailOnline's Sam Lawley previously visited the Spanish resort for a game of golf on its impressive course. He said: 'Despite the lofty expectations, Sotogrande provided surprises around every corner and the blending of gentle tree-lined undulations with towering, intimidating mountains meant that the view from every tee was unique. 'The water is fun, the fairways are like carpets and the greens are a rollercoaster ride. It is everything you could ask for in a course. 'At €400 a round, it is not somewhere you can go every summer, but even if you play it just once, the picture postcard images will stay in your head for a long time.' Michelle Keegan looked sensational as she shared snaps from the retreat to Instagram on Thursday. Michelle also took the opportunity to share Palma's sweet nickname with followers as she captioned the post: 'Princess P's first family holiday'. The actress, who celebrated her birthday earlier this week, looked sensational in a skimpy black bikini as she gazed adoringly at her first child while shielding her from the sun beneath an umbrella. Michelle later slipped into a crochet dress while teasing a glimpse of her swimwear beneath. Beaming for the camera Michelle wore shades and a straw hat as she pushed Palma in her pram. Earlier in the week, doting parents Michelle and Mark were spotted out with their daughter in Marbella as they celebrated the actress's birthday. Michelle was cradling her little girl, three months, in her arms as they strolled along together - looking every inch the picture perfect family. The couple welcomed t heir first child together on March 6 and then announced the news on their respective Instagram pages a week later. Michelle looked lovely in a white lace co-ord from her Very collection, which included a white applique shirt and a pair of matching shorts. She boosted her frame with flip flop style heels and accessorised with gold hoop earrings, wearing her brunette hair in a low ponytail. Her daughter was wearing a sweet pale yellow two-piece. Meanwhile, former TOWIE star Mark was dressed in all black for their evening out, sporting a short-sleeved shirt with linen trousers. The couple welcomed their first child together on March 6 and then announced the news on their respective Instagram pages a week later Michelle then modelled a stunning yellow dress from her own Very collection Michelle showed off the stunning SO/ Sotogrande Spa & Golf Resort Hotel He completed the ensemble with black Birkenstock sandals and a chain necklace. The outing came as Michelle shared a rare sneak peek of her baby daughter, she uploaded an adorable black and white photo of Palma's feet, she wrote: 'Yep... my toes.' Michelle and Mark have been enjoying their time as parents and have been sharing small glimpses of Palma on their social media accounts. It's believed the couple chose the name Palma because of their strong links to Mallorca, which has been their go-to holiday destination for years and the setting for their pregnancy reveal photoshoot. Michelle married Mark in May 2015 and the couple live together in a £3.5 million Essex mansion they built from scratch. Chatting with his best friend and fellow dad Olly Murs on his Heart Breakfast show, TOWIE star Mark recalled the moment he first held his newborn daughter in his arms. Mark fought back emotions as he said: 'Mate, it's actually hard to put into words. 'It's the biggest achievement of my life it's all I think about but obviously, hats go off to my wife she is an absolute superhuman, a superhero for bringing this baby into the world.' Sharing his appreciation for Michelle, he added: 'It makes you realise what our mums did for us and makes me have so much more respect than I already had and what women had to go through. 'It's the best feeling in the world. I wake up every morning just so excited to see her face.' Recalling the first moment he held Palma, he continued: 'That moment when I held her in my arms, it gets me emotional now thinking about it.' Mark added: 'I suppose everything else goes out the window and its made me realise what life is all about and my little baby Palma I love you so much and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you.
