An incredible dinner at @ses.coves 🥩🇪🇸🍇

The most stunning restaurant, nestled right into the Mallorcan countryside. The menu here is simple but really carefully put together, built around the grill and the best seasonal produce.

The grilled XL langoustine was unbelievably good. Cooked over wood fire, seasoned with coarse salt and finished with a homestyle pil pil, it was probably the best single langoustine I’ve had. So tender and sweet, with this really buttery flavour.

The red tuna belly with local garden tomatoes was lovely too. The olive oil and tomato water made this beautiful natural dressing for the fatty tuna and kept the whole thing feeling fresh.

The Galician ox tartare was intense and mature in flavour, cut straight from the ribeye and seasoned just enough to let the beef do the talking. No unnecessary sauces or anything overpowering, just incredible raw beef with crackers.

Also loved the scorpionfish with garlic. perfectly cooked with the smoke really getting into the flesh.

For the steak, i had to get both the Asturian mountain cow, Casina, and the Galician ox. Both were really tasty, but the buey had a more robust, slightly sweeter flavour and was much more tender. The fat was honestly edible on its own and absolutely packed with umami. The peppers and garlic fries on the side were perfect with it. Squishy fries with crispy ends.. the dream.

Finished with seasonal strawberries and smoked milk ice cream, which did the trick nicely.

A really special restaurant built around great ingredients, fire and refined technique. Highly recommend! Less
