La bocca di un pesce

La bocca di un pesce

La bocca di un pesce.
Veramente questo sembra un mostro marino più che un pesce. Era veramente enorme.
E’ passato quasi un anno da quando ho scattato questa foto a Palma di Maiorca, al mercato dell’Olivar.
Anche perché non è una delle foto che mi siano piaciute di più in assoluto.
La metto ora perché sono a corto di immagini.

Ristorante di sushi a Palma

Ristorante di sushi a Palma

Ristorante di sushi a Palma.
Entrare in un mercato coperto in Spagna e trovare un ristorante che fa del buon sushi e’ formidabile.
Come vi ho gia’ scritto in precedenza (questa credo sia gia’ la terza foto dello stesso luogo) eravamo nel mercato coperto di Palma di Maiorca, l’Olivar, e abbiamo trovato questo banco/ristorante con una buona selezione di piatti. Io, che non sono un amante di questo tipo di cibo, mi sono comunque mangiato qualche sashimi. I miei compagni ne hanno addirittura portato via un cabaret.

The history of sushi begins in ancient times, when rice cultivation came to Japan two thousand years ago. The original sushi was created in Nara to preserve fish in fermented rice. During the Muromachi period, rice began to be eaten in addition to fish, while in the Edo period, vinegar replaced fermented rice. In pre-modern and modern times, sushi has become a form of fast food strongly associated with Japanese culture.

Jamon stall at the Olivar Market

Banco di Jamon al Mercato de l'Olivar

Jamon stall at the Mercado de l’Olivar.
In the very typical Spanish markets, almost always covered, you can always find stalls selling Jamon.
Usually you can find all types (and prices obviously) and almost always, in addition to being able to eat it on the spot, you can conveniently take it away in vacuum-packed packages.
A delight for the palate and, why not, also for the sight.

Jamón ibérico (Iberian ham), or pata negra, or carna negra, is a type of ham from Iberian pigs, highly appreciated in Spanish and Portuguese cuisine, where it is considered a haute cuisine product. For its production, and to be able to boast this name, the meat must come from specimens resulting from a cross in which, from a genetic point of view, at least 50% of the Iberian breed participates.

Trays of great sushi in Palma de Mallorca

Vassoi di sushi a palma

Trays of excellent sushi in Palma de Mallorca.
Several weeks ago I went, with some colleagues, to visit and eat at the market de l’olivar in Palma de Mallorca.
Among the various stalls of fish, ham, fruit and Spanish street food there was also this stall that prepared and sold sushi.
We were captivated by the atmosphere and we made ourselves a mixed tray (before obviously moving on to the Spanish food).
It wasn’t bad and above all the counter with pebbles and petals wasn’t bad: very oriental!

Legumi e riso a Palma

Legumi a Palma

Legumi e riso a Palma.
I legumi ed il riso sono uno degli alimenti piu’ sani ed importanti per seguire una dieta equilibrata.
Negli ultimi anni se ne stanno riscoprendo di antichi che rischiavano di scomparire perche’ poco commerciali o redditizi.
Questo era il banco di un venditore al mercato de l’Olivar di Palma di Maiorca e la scelta era proprio ampia.

A fish stall at Palma market

Banco del pesce a Palma

A fish stall at the Palma market.
One of the most beautiful places where I ate in Palma de Mallorca is this market called de l’Olivar.
A classic in Spain are these covered markets in which, almost always, there are also small bistros where you can eat delicacies (which you pay for and which are not “cheap” despite the location).
The view and the material for photographs are always guaranteed! In addition of course to a good snack.
In this case the stall was of fish (fresh?) and in particular I photographed some beautiful octopuses!
