Es Raco de Teix
Deià, Mallorca
When it comes to outdoor dining, visitors to Deià are a little bit spoiled for choice. There's the wibbly-wobbly Ca's Patró March down by the water's edge, where the seafood is so fresh you literally watch the fishermen sail in; there's Nama, an Asian-fusion restaurant with heart, run by a tight unit of foodie experts; and there's the super-luxe Belmond La Residencia whose terraces are some of the prettiest in Mallorca. To us, Es Raco de Teix is a cut above. It might be Michelin-starred, but there'll be no pomp or unnecessary formalities here. Food is served on hand-painted crockery and eaten under the flicker of jaunty candelabras. We can't get enough.
