|
|

|
|
ambience. Here, we select some of Ibiza's best bars, cafes and restaurants.

Eating out in Ibiza: Ibiza Old Town is bustling with alfresco restaurants.

Ibiza is renowned for its assault on the senses. From the moment you arrive,
|
|
it feels as if you have materialised from another, more monochrome, two-
|
|
dimensional reality. Colours seem brighter, the air feels fresher and the nose
|
|
and palate no longer feel jaded.

|
|
peppers, potatoes and onions.
|
|
|
|
An immaculate seafood paella always tastes so much better when enjoyed on a
|
|
shaded terrace with a glass of wine, a view over a turquoise sea and the sound
|
|
of birdsong among the pines.
|
|
|
|
Creating a special atmosphere for the enjoyment of food is an Ibizan
|
|
speciality, whether it be a candle-lit dinner on a beachside terrace as the
|
|
sun slowly sets, watching the world go by in a cobbled street in Ibiza Old
|
|
Town or enjoying a sun-soaked lunch on the patio of a converted old Ibicencan
|
|
farmhouse in a country village.
|
|
|
|
Few destinations around the world do ambience quite so well. Imagination is a
|
|
crucial part of the mix and restaurants that create a different world with a
|
|
combination of superb interior design and inspired regional cooking are not
|
|
hard to find.
|
|
|
|
Two of the best include **Bambuddha Grove** on the road to Sant Joan, famous
|
|
for its chilled-out Eastern vibe, and **La Paloma** in the village of Sant
|
|
Llorenç, in the centre of the island.
|
|
|
|
**El Bigotes**, tucked away in a cove around the corner from Cala Mastella on
|
|
the east coast, is also an institution, serving lunch on wooden benches right
|
|
by the water opposite traditional fishermen's huts (booking in person is
|
|
essential).
|
|
|
|
Traditional seafood recipes include arroz a la marinera (fisherman's style
|
|
rice), bullit de peix (fish stew) and borrida de rajada (ray, potatoes and
|
|
almonds), while favourite meat dishes include frita de porc (pork, peppers,
|
|
potatoes and onions) and sofrit pages (fried lamb, chicken, pork, potatoes and
|
|
peppers).
|
|
|
|
Sweet menus feature flao, a tart made of goat's and sheep's cheese, and
|
|
greixonera, a pudding of pastry, milk and eggs.
|
|
|
|
The most famous restaurants are often very busy, especially at weekends in
|
|
high season, so it's always worth booking in advance. There are also plenty of
|
|
good-value smaller restaurants that serve great food and are invariably
|
|
relaxed and friendly.
|
|
|
|
**Where to eat in Ibiza**
|
|
|
|
Our pick of the best of the smaller bars, cafes and restaurants in Ibiza. Buen
|
|
provecho!
|
|
|
|
**Anita's, Sant Carles** This is a historic watering hole that should not be
|
|
missed. It was famous in the Sixties as the place where newly-arrived hippies
|
|
would pick up their mail from the PO boxes that are still on display. It
|
|
serves excellent tapas on a vine-shaded patio.
|
|
|
|
**Can Cosmi, Santa Agnes** On a terrace opposite the beautiful village church
|
|
in the north-west of the island, Can Cosmi is famous for its tortillas and as
|
|
a convivial meeting place for locals.
|
|
|
|
**Cami de Balafia** Near the village of the same name, known for its
|
|
interlocking houses and towers, Cami de Balafia is renowned for its barbecued
|
|
meat sourced from local animals and grilled over a fire of olive, almond and
|
|
carob wood. Delicious!
|
|
|
|
**Bar Costa, Santa Gertrudis** This is known for its paintings donated by
|
|
hard-up artists in return for sustenance. Don't miss its delicious jamon
|
|
serrano and famous bocadillos.
|
|
|
|
**Restaurant Salvado, Pou des Lleo** This out-of-the-way little restaurant
|
|
perched above a tiny fishing cove serves some of the freshest fish on the
|
|
island in the form of Ibizan fish stew and a squid, prawn and mussel soup.
|
|
|
|
**Bon Profit, Ibiza New Town** An good-value establishment in the heart of
|
|
Ibiza New Town, Bon Profit is family owned and has a canteenstyle dining area
|
|
that works very efficiently, so the queues that build up outside have a fast
|
|
turnover. Specialities include lamb and dorada (sea bream).
