Mediterranean cooking among Toni Marí’s sculptures

On the Camí Cabanes in Jávea, Ca Aleix describes itself as a restaurant of traditional Mediterranean cooking: rice dishes, fresh fish, grilled meat, salads and homemade desserts.

A restaurant in a sculpture park

The restaurant sits inside the park that sculptor Toni Marí has created next to his workshop, planted by Montgó Verd. The star of the place is Antonia, a huge iron whale you can see from the road.
