Ritas Cantina
Menu: Asian the Dutch way
Rita’s Cantina can be found at the end of the promenade that runs along San Antonio’s marina. Owner Rita started this restaurant decades ago and moved to this prime location a few years back. A beautiful building with high ceilings, decorated with lots of wood and a great mural of a Cuban woman with a cigar.
Rita is a pretty, blonde woman who loves to talk about how she started this restaurant and got it so popular, at a time when advertising on the Internet or social media did not exist. Word of mouth, she had to rely on that. So before we start the interview, she wants to double check that we are not another new and fleeting thing or as she calls it, “of those 1-day butterflies who have only been in Ibiza for 1 year and do not master the Spanish language.” Well of course we from “House Renting Ibiza” are not!
“I don’t like Trip Advisor either. Not because they can tear you down, but more because they can extol you. Visitors’ expectations are then way too high. They expect nouveau cuisine Asian food but at our place you just get noodles or nasi like your mother back home in Holland would have made it too.”
In addition to Nasi Goreng (€8.50) and Bami Goreng with satay , peanut sauce and shrimp crackers (€8.50) she also has on the menu: sandwich Shoarma (€5.50) the Thai soup Tom Kha Kai (€5.00) and a delicious Tiki Masala wrap (€6.00). And for sweet cravings: homemade apple pie with whipped cream (€3.50) and pancakes with ice cream and fruit (€4.75).
At the old location on the same boulevard, where she once started Rita’s Cantina, her daughter Merel now sits with Restaurant Es Petit.
