Discovering Alcudia’s Culinary Delights

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I am always on the lookout for family-friendly activities that offer both fun and a touch of education. When I heard about the Alcudia Tapas Tour in the heart of Alcudia’s Old Town, I knew it was an experience I couldn’t pass up. The idea of exploring the charming streets while savoring gourmet bites sounded like the perfect blend of culture and cuisine.

Our adventure began at Básico Gastro Bar, a cozy spot that immediately set the tone for the day. The kids were fascinated by the open kitchen, where they could watch the chefs in action. We opted for the Andalusian-style squid and squid croquettes, both of which were a hit with the whole family. The flavors were fresh and vibrant, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. It was a great introduction to the local cuisine, and the kids loved trying something new.

A Stroll Through History

After our first stop, we took a leisurely stroll through the picturesque streets of Alcudia. The town is steeped in history, and it’s easy to imagine what life was like centuries ago as you wander through its narrow lanes. The kids enjoyed spotting the ancient walls and learning about the town’s past, making it an educational experience as well.

Our next stop was De Tapas Bistro Bar, located in the charming Placeta de les Verdures. Here, we indulged in the Seafood “frito mallorquin” and the ever-popular Patatas bravas. The combination of tradition and innovation in the dishes was delightful, and the kids couldn’t get enough of the crispy, perfectly spiced potatoes. It was a wonderful way to introduce them to the flavors of the region while enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

Sweet Endings and Lasting Memories

As we continued our tour, we made our way to Restaurant Sa Mossegada, where we were treated to Botifarró toast and a comforting Potato fritter. The rustic charm of the restaurant added to the experience, and the kids were intrigued by the unique flavors of the locally sourced sausage.

Our final stop was at Sa Fonda Llabrés, where we ended our culinary journey on a sweet note. The homemade ice cream and Robiol, a typical Mallorcan dessert, were the perfect way to conclude our day. The kids were thrilled with the sweet treats, and it was a lovely way to reflect on the day’s adventures.

Overall, the Alcudia Tapas Tour was a fantastic experience that exceeded our expectations. It offered a unique way to explore Alcudia’s Old Town, combining delicious food with a touch of history and culture. It’s a highly recommended activity for families looking to enjoy a leisurely day filled with culinary delights and beautiful surroundings.
