The dining hall of CEIP Pare Bartomeu Pou in Algaida is, since last June and forevermore, Can Moncho. It is in recognition of José Ramon Gómez Lorenzo (Pedrayo, 1962) who from 1988 until this year has been the cook at the public school in the municipality. At times and amidst nostalgic memories, he explains very valid and practical tricks and recipes for any family trying to get the little ones at home to eat everything. Moncho didn't want any farewell party, but after almost 40 years of service, the event was completely inevitable.

Menorcan chef Josep Maria Borràs, recognized last November as the best chef in Spain and Portugal, is participating this Tuesday and Wednesday in Milan in the St. Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Competition, the contest that will select the best young chef in the world. A total of 15 finalists from around the world are competing, according to the Menorca Tourism Promotion Foundation.
