Dishing it up to those over-priced restaurants
Seven euros for a glass of wine? Ten euros for a pint of beer?
Fewer customers? Put your prices up, end result even fewer customers. This is what some restaurants in Mallorca have done and as a direct result they are suffering the consequences, a drop in takings and some are even thinking of closing. While there are many excellent and well priced restaurants on the island, some are not offering value for money and they are suffering. Palma is a tourist capital welcoming millions of tourists but how many restaurants in the centre of Palma offer Mallorcan cuisine? I would say just a handful. Now, if you want a pizza or sushi you are spoilt for choice.

Mallorca is just like the rest of Europe with its pricing structures. Imagine the outcry if someone opened a "Witherspoons" type pub? I can almost hear the fainting of bar owners in Portals from the UK.....
Avoid places where tourists and yuppies go, and you'll get decent food for a fair price.
No idea what you mean by "fantastic meal (of Mallorcan food) with a bottle of wine for what you would pay for two steaks In Palma". Im guessing, yet again, amateur journalism by the Editor.
