In which universe does a combination of mandarin orange sorbet, mint foam, passion fruit, rack of lamb, various vegetables and a wheat salad seem a good idea?

This combination was served to me at a friendly backstreet restaurant in the beautiful old part of Mallorca's capital Palma this week and was horrid.

While the individual components of the dish were fine - with the exception of the mint foam which tasted like something you'd spit our after brushing your teeth with Colgate - there were simply too many flavours screaming for attention of the plate.
