In June, Menorcan cuisine takes centre stage with the celebration of Menorca en el Plato (Menorca on a Plate), an event that brings together different restaurants from across the island in a tribute to local produce and traditional cuisine. Each menu includes a sample of Mahón-Menorca cheese and dishes made with local ingredients such as sobrassada, lobster, mussels and seasonal vegetables. A special chance to discover the flavours of Menorca through its most iconic recipes.
For more than a decade, Menorca en el Plato has become one of the most anticipated food events on the island. For ten days, restaurants in Ciutadella, Es Mercadal, Ferreries, Mahón and other municipalities offer special lunch and dinner menus that showcase local ingredients.
Each menu combines tradition with innovation, meaning diners can enjoy typical Menorcan recipes with a creative touch. The star products include Mahón-Menorca cheese, Menorcan sobrassada, vedella vermella beef, red prawns and the island's wines, which add flavour and an authentic touch to each dish.
More than a simple food experience, Menorca en el Plato invites you to discover the island through its cuisine by exploring different restaurants and learning about the nuances of a cuisine rooted in its surrounding land and sea. With the collaboration of local producers and backed by the Fundació Foment del Turisme de Menorca, this event has become a top place for locals and visitors looking for the real flavours of the island.
