The experience

From the sea
to rest.

Salitre y Calma traces the coast through produce, fire, fermentation and the flavours of the sea. A journey that begins beside the Mediterranean and ends with your eyes closed.

I · The beginning

The Sea in Three Acts

Three bites. Three ways to approach the sea.

The Sea in Three Acts

Pasture Crab

Crab and beef-fat spread on delicate filo pastry. Sea and land meet in a first bite of discovery.

Red Mullet Offal on a Crisp Tuile

The intensity of red mullet and a commitment to using the whole product, served on a fine, crisp tuile.

Kimchi and Charcoal-Seared Tuna Bite

Creamy kimchi, wild tuna and charcoal. Acidity, richness and a subtle smoky finish.

II · The shore

Saline Reef

The point where sea, rock and salt meet.

Saline Reef

Saline Reef

Lightly salt-cured prawn with warm dashi and seaweed foam. Iodine, salinity and marine depth.

III · The sea

The sea

The journey leaves the shore and moves into deeper flavours.

Horse mackerel in two textures
Baby squid, citrus pil-pil and almond

Horse Mackerel in Two Textures with Clarified Roasted Tomato Consommé

Lightly kombu-cured horse mackerel, tartare, crisped bone and clarified roasted tomato consommé.

Baby Squid, Citrus Pil-Pil and Almond

Line-caught Atlantic baby squid grilled over the embers, glazed with almond and lime pil-pil.

IV · Fire

Fire

The embers cease to be an accent and become part of the menu’s main language.

Red prawn rice and tendons
Koji-fermented sea bass

Red Prawn Rice and Tendons

Creamy rice wrapped in a thin slice of red prawn. Its grilled head allows the guest to complete the final gesture at the table.

Koji-Fermented Sea Bass and Agua de Lourdes

Koji-fermented sea bass finished over charcoal, served with Agua de Lourdes, our house sauce.

V · The pause

The pause

Essence of Fennel

After the fire comes silence. A frozen fennel quenelle cleanses and refreshes the palate before the journey turns towards sweetness.

VI · Sweet

Charred Pineapple

The embers return, this time to the fruit. Acidity and freshness connect the fire of the previous courses with the final chapter of the journey.

Sweet Dreams · The Last Sheep
VII · Rest

Sweet Dreams

The Last Sheep

Biscuit ice cream, smoked white chocolate ganache, almond crumble, warm lavender milk, caramel and candyfloss.

Time to sleep.
Sweet dreams.
