Don Mauro. Plaza mayor, Salamanca. Spain. Tel + 34 923281487. This is recomendation by J.M. Corchado. Superb ways to eat meat. First class materials, tradition and love. The local wines are a must. Try Mauro 2004.

Nuclo. Av. Joan Carles I, 58. 08908 l'Hospitalet de Llobregat. Tel + 3493223489. Just in between El Prat Airport and Barcelona. This is a splendid place to eat and enjoy good life. One of Helena Martinez's contributions. The space was designed specially for the restaurant and it offers both comfort and light. We had the large taster's menu and it splendid. The chef was there to explain some of the cooking details. The cellar is just great. I recommend to visit it. Make your reservations well in advance.

Desport. Marina 23. Port de Ciutadella. Tel +34971480022. 07760 Ciutadella de Menorca. This was the great discovery in Menorca. The taster menu is great. We had a memorable Caldereta. Just delicious. I was there with Helena Martínez Piñeiro
