Eating
Cassai INTERNATIONAL €
( 971 64 97 21; Carrer de Sitjar 5; mains €13-23.50; 11am-11pm) A beguiling yet under-
stated designer space, Cassai has the ambience of an Ibiza chill-out cafe for grown-ups. It
also runs a designer homewares store in town and it shows in its rustic- sophisticated de-
cor. Dishes include lamb cutlets with tumbet (a traditional vegetable dish), red tuna curry,
and a well-priced express lunch (€8.50).
Casa Manolo MALLORCAN €€€
( 971 64 91 30; www.bodegabarahona.com ; Plaça Sant Bartomeu 2; mains €16-27; 11am-4pm
& 7-11pm Tue-Sun) With its photo-plastered walls and ceilings strung with Serrano hams,
this corner bar looks much as it did when it first opened in 1945. The secret to its staying
power is the rice, seafood and fish dishes. Try lobster stew or arròs notari, a rice dish
overflowing with seafood and a rich squid-ink sauce.
Asador Es Teatre GRILL €€€
( 971 64 95 40; www.asadoresteatre.com ; Plaça Sant Bartomeu 4; mains €12-22; 11am-11pm
Thu-Tue) Asador Es Teatre specialises in roast lamb, T-bone steaks and other fine cuts of
meat. The building dates to the 19th century, but the outdoor terrace is the place to be.
