As one of the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, the island of Ibiza is a food lovers paradise. Restaurants cater to just about every palate and pocketbook. During the summer their desire to please the tourists goes as far as offering dinner at midnight for those who choose to party all night. While cuisines from all over the world are available, visitors will want to make sure they sample some local dishes while on the island.
The cuisine of Ibiza has developed over the centuries as the influences of Phoenicians, Romans, Moors, and Arabs evolved into Spanish and Catalan dishes. Ibiza restaurants offer a range of Spanish delights, many taking advantage of the abundant seafood available on the island.
Ibiza offers a wide range of dining experiences. Diners can enjoy upscale fine dining with expensive delicacies. They can also relax in the more casual atmosphere of a tapas bar. For the ultimate informal experience, you can enjoy barbeque on the beach with friends. Outside the cities, there are charming country restaurants that provide stunning views as well as mouth-watering food.
In addition to tapas and seafood, diners on Ibiza will find dishes cooked with olives, sweet peppers, and rice are popular. Paella, fiduea, stews, and casseroles are also in abundance, served with tortillas and locally produced beer or wine.

Thank you so much, this was a good read. I was actually born in Spain (I’m not telling when though!) but moved around europe and lastly settled in England when I was 5. I dont remember an awful lot of the few years I was in spain, but the smell of spanish food always seems to ring a bell in me or something. Funny, how I dont remember anything except the smells,isn’t it! I actually found a whole internet site dedicated to spanish recipes, which gave me great delight and thought I ought to share. Anyway, thank you again. I’ll get my son to add your cast to my rss app…
