Menorca airport -- Gastronomy

Of all the Balearic Islands, Minorca is the one that best preserves its identity, thanks to the love that the Minorcans feel for their land and to the sustainable tourism that thrives in the island. The local food reflects these circumstances.
Mayonnaise, originally from Mahón – even though many will argue it is not – is masterfully prepared in Minorca. Many other local products try to compete with this delicious sauce in popularity. Aside from Mayonnaise, Minorca has three big products: fish, cheese and sloe gin.

The quality of Minorcan fish and lobsters is unmatchable and will delight the most demanding palates.

Cheese from Mahón, with Designation of Origin, is the most representative island product. This cheese is made with cow milk and it has a square shape with rounded corners, due to the cloth that wraps it tight to facilitate the dripping of curdled milk. When it is finished, it is greased with oil or butter to ensure its preservation. This cheese can be sold fresh or semi-cured, but also aged, which has quite a strong flavour and delicious smell.

Designed by Robert Trent Senior, the main feature which distinguishes this course from The Lakes is the abundance of trees - hence the name - and its smaller size, as well as fewer water hazards. The greens are smaller, undulating and well defended. Although both are the work of the same designer, there is no doubt there are interesting contrasts between the two courses: if Los Lagos are based on hazards of water and sand, Los Olivos is strategic narrow tree lined fairways and elevated greens.

With its 6,367 metres, this course is the longer of the two which comprise of Mijas Golf. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Senior, Los Lagos is a ground course with wide fairways and a few forest trees obstacles, but is defended by many bunkers and nine lakes, from which the course gets its name and which easily trap the ball. It is a course with soft movement and large greens. It could be said that the American designer wanted to present a course especially for amateurs, but at the same time, it can present a challenge for the best players.
