Treat yourself to an impeccable meal at Michelin-star-winning Del Mar, Fabio and Maria Trabocchi’s latest culinary vision. Spanish cuisine is celebrated here, with an emphasis on seafood (Maria is from Mallorca). The Mediterranean-style setting is as outstanding as the food, including custom-made furniture, hand-painted tiles and one-of-a-kind artworks. If you get only one dish, make it the paella.
