Starters
Begin your meal with delightful starters that perfectly balance texture and taste. The Spanakopita features crisp filo pastry enveloping a luscious blend of spinach and feta cheese, offering a classic Mediterranean bite. Alternatively, try the Salt Cod Churros, a creative take on a traditional favorite, combining salt cod with paprika, garlic, and parsley, served alongside a smoky romesco sauce for an unforgettable flavor punch. For a refined choice, the Vitello Tonnato presents tender veal topped with a tangy tuna and caper mayonnaise sauce, brightened by fresh lemon juice and parsley.
Mains
The mains at Morchella showcase the kitchen’s mastery of seafood and seasonal vegetables. Enjoy the delicate scallops sautéed with cauliflower mushrooms, garlic, and a hint of lemon butter, delivering a rich yet fresh dish. The Hake and Sobrasada combines flaky hake with the spicy cured sausage, enhanced by tomato and garlic in a fragrant olive oil base. For those craving a heartier option, the Monkfish and Cuttlefish features a tender duo cooked with garlic, parsley, and lemon for bright, savory layers. Vegetarians will appreciate the Winter Caponata Panzerotti — pasta stuffed with eggplant, tomato, onion, capers, and olives — a comforting and flavorful celebration of Mediterranean veggies. Lastly, the Salt-Baked Poussin with Chilli Sauce offers a crispy, aromatic poussin accented by rosemary, garlic, and a spicy chili kick.
Desserts
Conclude your dining experience with exquisite desserts that blend sweet and savory notes. The Lemon Tart is a classic finish, featuring a buttery crust filled with tangy lemon custard and a touch of cream for smoothness. For a more adventurous palate, the Blood Orange and Black Olive Portokalopita combines flaky phyllo pastry with the bright citrus of blood orange and the subtle brininess of black olives, complemented by syrup, yogurt, and lemon zest for a nuanced sweet-savory harmony.
