This Saturday, 20 April 2024, David Maties won the ‘El Millor Pa amb Oli Olives Rosselló’ contest. His creation stood out among the fifteen finalists in a very close competition held at the Son Mesquidassa olive mill.
The contest, which took place today, now has a winner for its third edition. David Maties, a resident of Sóller, impressed everyone with his exceptional version of a pa amb oli featuring confit artichokes, black pig jowl, and almond romesco sauce made with Mallorcan almonds, winning over the jury’s palates and earning the title.
The jury, made up of prominent figures such as Joan Ramis, manager of Olives Rosselló and Oli Balle; Juan Alcaide, manager of Son Mesquidassa; Guillem Reynès, winner of the previous edition; and Tomeu Penya, renowned singer-songwriter and gastronomy expert, awarded Maties’ creation. The proposals by Anna Petrillo from Palma, who came second, and Victoria Pou from Sóller, who took third place, were also highly praised.
This contest, organised by Olives Rosselló, Son Mesquidassa, and Oli Balle, aims to promote the Mediterranean diet and encourage the consumption of local products.
