Tel Aviv (also called simply: TLV), a century old city that started as a settlement of 66 families rose to become ‘The City that Never Sleeps’ alongside New York. This bustling City, home to more than 400, 000 residents boasts of a fascinating blend of two architectural influences: from Old European Neo-classical romantic designs in the late 1910 to modern world-class Azrieli Center of today. Some of the old buildings were preserved to become historical landmarks of today like the “Pagoda” house on the corner of Melchett, Nachmani and Montifori streets, the “Twin House” on the corner of Strauss and Mazeh streets and the “Levine” house on Rothschild Boulevard.
From 1920′s, internationally designed buildings were erected, known to this day as Bauhaus architecture. The houses had flat roofs, rounded balconies, and longitudinal windows. The designs were developed to create protection against the harsh Mediterranean sun during summers. The collection of these buildings is now considered an UNESCO world heritage site.
The Azrieli Center, on the other hand, is Tel Aviv’s tallest sky-scraper. Three buildings make up this modern architecture, with the 49-floor circular tower which was completed in 1999, the triangular one with 46 floors finished in the same year, and the latest addition, the square tower 8 years later. The Azrieli Center houses Tel Aviv’s biggest shopping center and one of the largest telecommunication companies in Israel.

Taking a walking/hiking holiday or short break is of course a healthy, refreshing way of really appreciating the beauty and sights of a new environment. As we mentioned in our previous post, there are many advantages of doing this with a local guide. But one, very significant advantage that will actually be more relevant AFTER the walking is knowing the best places to EAT – and in Mallorca you are spoilt for choice.
Mallorca through the centuries has always had many cultural influences – many times brought by conquering armies and more recently through a more civilised source with tourism. These cultural influences have also brought their culinary influences and Mallorca is now home to hundreds of different styles and tastes from Fast Food to the highest levels of gourmet cuisine.
Five restaurants have been awarded the prestigious Michelin Star in Mallorca for 2011 – two of them being new awards. But great food is not limited to the excellence of the Michelin chefs. Mallorca has a strong history of excellent food and also a very versatile use of the unlikeliest food items particularly from it’s farming roots of previous centuries.
The pig was and still is a popular ingredient to many local dishes including the now famous sobrasada; the very popular roasted suckling pig and also variations of the Frito Mallorquin which is a descendant of the poorest families’ staple diet in olden days.
Pa amb oli is another Mallorquin favourite with varied platters. These are usually cold dish choices with either a meat or cheese selection (but can also be fish) served with a thinly sliced rustic Mallorcan bread; olive oil; ramallet (spreading) tomatoes, garlic and sea salt. Simply crush the thin skinned ‘ramallet’ tomatoes with a garlic clove, sea salt and a generous glug of olive oil and serve on a slab of rustic bread. A variety of toppings can then be added from slices of locally cured hams, chorizos and sobrasadas or cheese. This meal choice is particularly popular through the summer and can last for hours along with great conversation and some superb Mallorquin wines.
