How time flies! We face the final stretch of the 2023 season and, looking back, we discover that we have been offering seafood recipes for 37 years in this idyllic cove in the south of Ibiza. We opened our doors in the summer of 1986, on what was then a completely isolated and unknown shore, which went unnoticed by tourists and...
The island's gastronomy offers an amalgam of extraordinary products, among which there is one that stands out very much: the red prawn (Aristeus antennatus), which is also very scarce this season. Today we explain the reasons for its extraordinary quality through five features that make it unique. 1 ) Flavour: Its greatest virtue lies in the potency of its flavour, which...
In the past, fishermen prepared the ‘bullit de peix’ with small varieties, with a lot of thorn, which had a worse outlet in the market than large fish, although they were just as tasty. It was a dish that still had little presence in restaurants. Over time, however, its elaboration became popular, using large cut varieties, which make it easier...
Paella, fideuá and ‘bullit de peix’ are probably the most popular and demanded dishes of our menu. They are an icon of island cuisine and we recommend trying them because they carry the tastiest fish of the Ibiza Sea, such as grouper, San Pedro rooster, anglerfish, denton or scorpionfish, among others.

Restaurants, however, began to prepare it with cut varieties, easier to eat and with a flavor as intense as...
There is already an official date for the opening of Es Torrent for this 2023 season! It will be in less than a month, on Friday, April 21, and we will do it with the hope of finally facing a summer with great expectations, after recovering normality last season after two summers marked by the pandemic.

Since last May, the first centenary of the Fishermen's Guild of Ibiza and Formentera is being celebrated, whose members we have to thank for the extraordinary genre that we use as the basis for our seafood dishes. This entity, which began as Pósito de Pescadores, was the first association formed by professionals from the guild. Its purpose was to bring together...
If two posts ago we told the story of the church of es Cubells, one of the most recent in rural Ibiza, this time we want to stop at Sant Josep, one of the largest on the island, also very close to Es Torrent. Like so many other island temples, it was not built in a village, but in a...
