Restaurants in Javea
|
There are so many eating places throughout the Moraira - Benitachell - Javea/Xabia area of the Costa Blanca, from small cafes to five star restaurants, offering such a wonderful range of food, from regional variations of Spanish cuisine, to international dishes from around the world, that to try and recommend any particular one is impossible.
In addition to the extensive international choices, you'll find a selection of the best local cuisine at any of the hundreds of restaurants in Javea.
Rice dishes come in a wide variety of styles: arroz al horno (oven baked rice), arroz con costra (topped with a "crust" of omelette), arròs amb fesols i naps (with beans and turnips), and the famous local arròs a la marinera (fishermans' rice), as well as the internationally famous paella.
Freshly caught fish are used in succulent dishes such as cruet de peix ( a fresh fish and prawn stew) and suc de roig, or just crisply fried in a fritura. Locals also salt or dry their catch to make salazones of anchovy, tuna, bonito or the savoury borreta de melva - excellent as appetizers.
Pizza-like coques de pebrera i tomata and traditional sausage preparations complete the typical local offerings, not to mention pumpkin and almond pastries (buñuelos de calabaza, pastissets d'ametla) for the sweet-toothed.
Champagne Jalousie bar/restaurant is very popular which meets everyones criteria. Whether you want a nice daytime meal looking out onto the beach, or a good night out, its food and cocktail menu are very good.
