La Mallorquina is a restaurant in San Juan, Puerto Rico that specializes in the making of Puerto Rican and Spanish-particularly Palma de Mallorca-cuisine such as asopao, gazpacho, arroz con pollo, paella and flan. It opened its doors in 1848 and has been run by the Rojos family since 1900 and some historians claim that La Mallorquina is the first eating establishment in Puerto Rico.〔Ortiz, Yvonne. A Taste of Puerto Rico: Traditional and New Dishes from the Puerto Rican Community. Penguin group, 1997. P. 3〕 The restaurant's original owners, Antonio Vidal Llinás and others, came from Palma de Mallorca, Spain; that's why they named their restaurant ''La Mallorquina,'' which loosely translated into English means ''The Woman from Mallorca.'' Puerto Rico's first elected governor, Luis Muñoz Marín, was also one of the famous people to visit the restaurant.〔(San Juan: memoir of a city )〕 ==See also== *Puerto Rican cuisine *Spanish cuisine 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「La Mallorquina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
