The Experience

The first thing I remember is the clatter of plates echoing off the old stone walls near Es Baluard — that, and the warm smell of frying oil drifting out from a tiny doorway where our guide, Marta, waved us in. She greeted us like we were old friends (maybe it was just her way), and handed over a croqueta so hot I nearly dropped it. I burned my tongue a little but honestly, worth it. The filling was creamy and salty and somehow tasted like someone’s grandma had made it just for us.

We wandered down narrow lanes with Marta pointing out details I’d never have noticed — faded tiles above doorways, the way people here always say “bon dia” instead of “hola.” At one stop we tried coca de pimientos; she explained how her aunt makes it every Sunday, then laughed when I tried to pronounce “coca” properly (I still can’t). Somewhere between bites, we paused at the Es Baluard viewpoint. The sea looked almost fake in the late sun — all blue and silver. There was this moment where everyone just went quiet, chewing or maybe just thinking.

I lost track of how many places we ducked into after that — bakeries with sweet almond pastries, a bar where an old man poured us tiny glasses of something herbal and strong (I should’ve asked what it was). Each tasting felt different: some crunchy, some sticky, some so simple you wonder why you don’t eat like this at home. Marta knew half the people behind the counters; there were hugs and jokes in Mallorquín I couldn’t follow. It felt less like a tour and more like tagging along with someone who really loves their city — which is probably why I still think about that afternoon whenever I smell olive oil heating up.
