If you are feeling "flush" on your vacation in Spain's party capital
Ibiza this summer, you will be able to splash out on a truly exclusive
meal at a mere 1,500 euros per person. That is around $2,075 for those of
you in the U.S. of A.
If you are wondering what on earth you would get
for this exorbitant fee, diners at the SubliMotion restaurant at the
upcoming Hard Rock Hotel Ibiza in Spain's Balearic Islands will be
treated to the very latest in “avant-garde gastronomy” in a literal
"theater to the senses."
The restaurant, opening on June 1, will
be in the tender, expert hands of Paco Roncero, a master chef with two
Michelin stars and three Repsol Suns under his belt, previously at "La
Terraza del Casino de Madrid."
You will be in limited company, as
SubliMotion
only serves 12 guests per night. You and the other 11 guests can
indulge in a "gastro-sensory" spectacle which includes not only
excellent gourmet dishes, but also lights, sounds and levitating dinner
plates. A unique experience that "transcends dining."
Of course there is also "location, location, location," as the restaurant will be found at Ibiza’s emblematic Playa d’en Bossa.
While the language is Spanish, the video below shows the planning
stages of the restaurant. Introduced by Paco Roncero, it gives an idea
of the decor and special effects that will be used, all backed by
beautiful music from the music collective (and beach bar),
Cafe del Mar (the "head office" of which is also in Ibiza incidentally).
Of interest is the fact that Spain already has the best restaurant in
the world, after the prestigious UK magazine Restaurant gave the award
to the
Celler de Can Roca restaurant in Girona.
There is also Spain's
most exclusive restaurant
in Barcelona, which only serves one group per night. Mercès One offers a
unique experience whereby guests can choose not only the cuisine, but
also the decor to go along with it.
By the way, if SubliMotion
is a tad too expensive for your tastes, the hotel is also offering a
branch of the famous Estado Puro restaurants (Pure State), which already
has two locations in Madrid. This restaurant will offer creative
cuisine at more affordable prices and can seat up to 300 diners.
Oh yes, and if "party capital of the world" sounds a bit too hectic for
your vacation, while the capital city on the island of Ibiza is famous
for its incredible dining and nightlife, the island does also offer
beautiful and traditional
rural landscapes and villages for your more peaceful pleasure, all within easy driving distance of Ibiza city.
