This thoughtfully curated 17-course tasting menu artfully combines local Spanish ingredients with global flavors, designed to surprise and delight the most discerning food lovers.
Starters to Awaken Your Palate
The menu opens with bold and fresh starters that set the tone for the meal. The Croqueta Thai offers a vibrant blend of shrimp, curry, onion, garlic, and cilantro, delivering an exotic bite that balances richness with herbaceous zest. Another standout starter is the Air Pizza, a playful creation combining crispy panipuri with tomato sauce, creamy burrata, Parmesan cheese, succulent porchetta, and fragrant basil—melding textures and Mediterranean flavors in an unexpected but harmonious way.
Mains That Showcase Culinary Craftsmanship
The mains at Restaurante Gamberro are a testament to inventive cooking and local sourcing. The Takoyaki de Pichón reinvents the traditional Japanese snack with pigeon, flour, Galician broth, chives, and teriyaki sauce, offering a rich umami experience. Hearty Filloas filled with tender ternasco lamb cooked in red wine and aromatic spices bring a comforting yet refined touch to the menu. For seafood lovers, the Lubina with Navazo kale and scallop cream combines fresh sea bass with velvety textures and bright citrus notes. Other masterful dishes include the Dumpling de Marisco, bursting with mixed seafood and chili crab gazpachuelo, and a vegan-friendly Calabaza featuring pumpkin, salted pumpkin seed praliné, fermented soybean paste, garlic, and sesame oil that delivers a complex umami depth.
Decadent Desserts to Complete Your Experience
End your gastronomic journey with desserts that combine tradition with modern flair. The Cheesecake de Queso de Radiquero offers a luscious creaminess balanced by a buttery digestive biscuit base and a touch of lemon brightness. Meanwhile, the Flan de Hinojo surprises with fennel-infused custard topped with white chocolate foam and fermented red berries, creating a layered interplay of sweet, floral, and tangy notes that linger delightfully on the palate.
Drinks and Specials to Elevate Your Meal
Complement your meal with carefully selected local wines and craft beers, served by knowledgeable staff who suggest perfect pairings to enhance each course. The attentive service often surprises diners by introducing innovative drinks as your glasses empty, creating a seamless and engaging dining atmosphere. While the tasting menu evolves with the seasons, the restaurant’s specials often highlight regional products like Longaniza de Graus and Banderilla Guardia Civil, elevating traditional flavors with creative presentation.
