Whilst you are most likely to spend your time sunning by the pool, and partying, there is a lot more to Ibiza than those activities alone. A cultural haven too, you should also make time for the delights that Ibiza's restaurants can offer.
Whilst it is always good to submerge yourself in a local culture, you may find the traditional Ibicenco dishes a little too piquant for your tastes. However, with more standard Spanish restaurants everywhere, and a host of cuisines from all over the world, there is surely to be something to tempt you.
If you are feeling braver still, perhaps you will even head for one of the German restaurants which are also popular; such is the popularity of Ibiza in Bavaria!
Whichever of Ibiza's restaurants you decide to visit, you are sure of a great welcome and the food will most likely be of an excellent quality with local produce relied upon. For an excellent deal at lunch, look for the "menu del dia"; particularly in Spanish restaurants, which will give you three courses and wine for little more than ten Euros!
You could of course elect to stay with what is offered through your resort. However, whilst these are generally of a high standard, it is outside of the resorts that the real gems can be seen. Try also to move away from the tourist traps; head into the hills and along the western coast for excellent service and quality.
Ibiza's restaurants add so much more to your vacation than somewhere to eat but, if heading out in the summer, do be careful. More and more, lower quality, restaurants open up, and there are of course the global fast food chains. But steer away from these if you can, and follow where the local residents go the real Ibizan experience. - 31512
