Starters to awaken your palate
Begin your meal with deliciously crafted starters that set the tone for an exceptional feast. The Pan de masa madre y mantequilla de cabra offers a rustic flavor with its sourdough bread paired beautifully with rich goat butter. For a delightful bite, try the Croqueta filled with seasoned chicken and a hint of pepper, or the Buñuelo, which combines cheese, quince, and pistachio for a harmonious blend of sweet and savory.
A standout starter is the Airbag, featuring a vibrant potato salad topped with seasoned octopus, olive, and smoky paprika — a perfect introduction to the flavors of Murcia’s coastline.
Main courses with a Mediterranean soul
The mains at Frases are a masterclass in regional ingredients and contemporary technique. Savor the tender Segureño lamb, perfectly paired with Totanera pumpkin, garlic, and a rich demiglace that brings deep, earthy notes to the plate. Seafood lovers will relish the steamed fish served with seaweed, vibrant green sauce, and Calasparra rice — a true tribute to Murcia’s maritime bounty.
Other exquisite main dishes include the succulent smoked duck with foie mousse and seasonal mushrooms, and the expertly roasted scallop accompanied by buttered grilled corn. For an indulgent taste of the sea, the red prawn served with codium and caldero broth is not to be missed. The innovative Flan de tomate, enhanced with tomato pesto, smoked eel, and foam, adds a creative flourish to the menu.
Decadent desserts to end on a high note
No meal at Frases is complete without sampling the delightful desserts. The Galleta offers a luxurious combination of butter sable, toffee, spiced chocolate, milk ice cream, and caramelized pork rinds, creating layers of contrasting textures and flavors. Cheese aficionados will appreciate the selected cheeses served with cheesecake foam and ice cream — a sophisticated cheese course with a refreshing twist.
For a warm and comforting finish, the caramelized brioche paired with vanilla ice cream and toasted butter offers a harmonious blend of sweetness and richness perfect for sharing.
