Paella in Mallorca
The beach: Palma Bay, in Ciudad Jardín
The place: El Bungalow
The dish: Sumptuous seafood-studded paella
Despite its popularity in Mallorca, El Bungalow feels like an insiders' secret. It's partly the unpretentious look of the place: With a mailbox out front, it could almost be your uncle's ranch house…if your uncle's house were on a quietly spectacular beach, with a terrace on the sand where you could watch the hushed advance and retreat of the Mediterranean. But the restaurant is packed every night with locals, chefs, and Mallorca scenesters, so clearly the secret is out. El Bungalow is justly beloved for its paella—toothsome rice seasoned with paprika, saffron, and garlic and studded with gleaming mussels, shrimp, and oysters. Book a table on the terrace for lunch or dinner, and the sea breezes from the south will stir the tantalizing scent of saffron from your paellera.
