Pizzicheria Mallorca

Davide has done it again! Davide di Meo, originally from Bologna and thus a child of Emilia Romagna, which I highly value from a culinary point of view, has already been through some exciting chapters in his life—both in his gastronomic career and geographically.

In fact, he ended up in Mallorca via Dublin and South Korea. And specifically in Santa Catalina. At Carrer Annibal, 14, where a wonderful Italian restaurant was based until Covid, he has opened a new and clever gastro concept.

And that was today, of all days. And Davide invited friends and the public to try out his Pizzicheria, and half of Palma was there! Plus Italian entertainers, lots of customers and acquaintances. And really, it was more a big party with lots of good vibes than a tasting.

Honestly! I don’t know … I tried to find out. But even Wikipedia doesn’t know what a Pizzicheria is. Google translates it as Pizzeria. Does that do Davide’s Pizzicheria Mallorca justice?

The restaurant is small, narrow, and cozy. It normally probably has around 10 tables. And outside it could look similar. The small kitchen, which runs from about the middle of the venue towards the back, really makes the staff sweat, and guests can see for themselves that their pizza is prepared fresh.

In any case, I wish Davide and his team every success! An interesting and special concept that enriches Santa Catalina’s gastro scene with yet another offering!

Quick add-on: They opened today on Insta. And on 18.7. is the big opening … Hmm … Maybe next week, before a spontaneous visit to Pizzicheria Mallorca, it’s better to call first 🙂

The pizza itself is something special. I’ll have to ask Davide over the next few days, but evidently he has created an incredibly light and fluffy yeast dough which, topped with the usual ingredients, becomes a little delicacy.

Is that enough to say it’s good? Or not good? No, of course not. But what I tried tasted great. And it made me curious. And I thought, maybe you’ll just try it yourselves and enjoy being able to try something new in Palma?
