What are you looking forward to in 2022?

We’re longing to see family members and friends visiting Mallorca again. One of our greatest pleasures with foodie friends who visit is sharing food and drink experiences. And we’ve discovered quite a few different places we think friends would enjoy.

Although we’re usually spontaneous when it comes to eating out plans, we do have a fabulous dinner ahead that we’re really excited about. Our great friends Duncan and Kristina, who have visited us from Oxfordshire many times since we’ve lived here, generously Christmas-gifted us a voucher for dinner at the Michelin-starred Marc Fosh restaurant in Palma. We are so looking forward to our dinner there in March when Marc Fosh re-opens for the season.

Marc Fosh restaurant features in my novel Daughter of Deià, as does Belmond’s La Residencia hotel in Deià. Despite the uncertainties of the pandemic, La Residencia apparently had its best August on record and is one of several 5-star hotels in Mallorca to report an excellent 2021 season. I had the pleasure of attending another media dinner at La Resi in the early autumn, but my only stay in the hotel this year was a vicarious one, in the fictional world of Daughter of Deià’s protagonist Laura Lundon.

A Bargain Read for the New Year

Daughter of Deià is available in Kindle and paperback formats and is currently on special offer for a limited period at 99 pence from the Amazon UK store. If you’re missing Mallorca and don’t know when you may next visit, enjoy some armchair travel as we head into 2022. All for less than the cost of a coffee out.

Thank you for reading Eat Drink Sleep Mallorca, and I wish you a Happy, Healthy, and Fulfilling New Year.
