Background
About El Olivo
The Story
El Olivo is the fine-dining restaurant at Belmond La Residencia, the Deià hotel tucked into the Tramuntana mountains. The dining room sits inside a 17th-century oil mill that still keeps its original Mallorcan tafona, the old olive press. In summer, weather permitting, service moves out to the terrace, where you get views over Deià and the surrounding mountains. It's one of three places to eat at the hotel, alongside the all-day Restaurante Miró and the casual Tramuntana Grill.
The Cuisine
Chef Pablo Aranda runs a tasting menu the Michelin Guide describes as 'return-to-roots cuisine'. The base is Mediterranean, with Arabic influences that nod to his native Granada, and the whole thing draws on the poetic world of Federico García Lorca. There's a vegetarian tasting menu too, available on request. Michelin singles out the lamb loin, served with a black olive crust, toasted sheep's milk and artichokes.
