icatessen. Most items are organic and there's plenty of choice for vegetarians. You'll find

( 971 71 09 54; www.restaurantebruselas.com ; Carrer d'Estanc 4; mains €9-25; 1-4pm & 8pm-
midnight Mon-Sat) Once a Belgian-owned piano bar, Bruselas is all about red meat for aes-
thetes, with pleasantly contemporary decor in the stone-vaulted basement and Argentine
steaks - such as solomillo con foie (sirloin with foie gras) - dominating the menu. There
are also gourmet hamburgers and it all goes down particularly well with a throaty Mal-
lorcan red, such as Son Bordils Negre.
