Follow The Locals To The Best Restaurants In Spain And Cyprus

Whether it"s fresh seafood out of the local waters or sampling the homegrown wine list

, here's our round up of the top regional restaurants in Spain and Cyprus to test out on your holidays.

Starry Spain

From paella to tapas, Spain is well known for its culinary charms. With such a varied landscape it is difficult to know where to start however. That"s why we"ve picked our favourite restaurants from Madrid and Mallorca to give you some inspiration.

Despite its inland location you"ll find some of Spain"s best fish restaurants in the capital Madrid "" and La Dorada is certainly one of our favourites. With cabins providing privacy and a menu rich with lobster, bream, seabass and more, it is easy to see why so many madrileos flock here. You"ll be pleased to know that the desserts are as delicious as the shellfish too.

For something a little further afield, join Spain"s refined palates at Zaranda in Mallorca. Considered to be the island"s best restaurant and the owner of its very own Michelin star, Zaranda and its head chef Fernando Prez Arellano serve up some of the freshest, seasonal food from the Mediterranean and Balearic Islands. Its extensive wine cellar "" home to more than 170 national and international brands "" is also popular with local connoisseurs.

Charismatic Cyprus

For local delicacies, intimate tavernas and live music, you really can"t go wrong during your holidays in Cyprus either. For plenty of bouzouki, seafood and a truly warm welcome, visit the Mylos restaurant and Lofou Taverna "" two of the island"s old favourites.

Offering a great place to eat whatever the weather, the beautifully restored Mylos restaurant in Kakopetria "" a former 17th century flourmill - boasts a beautiful terrace and two romantic open fires. What"s more, the food is pretty special too "" especially the signature fresh trout that comes with a secret family sauce. Trust us, they won"t tell you what they put in it however much you plead.
