Sal H.
Yelp
This is the best meal you're going to find in Salamanca -- in service, quality of food, pacing, ingenuity, and plating. Say goodbye to the heavy, creamy, gut-busting tavern meals of this pork-obsessed region, and hello to elegant modern cuisine in a QUIET and intimate dining room.
The dinner menu takes the form of a degustation that is perfectly paced for a several-hour-long repast with friends. Light dishes, such as a cod carpaccio with oranges and pomegranate spilled over greens, spotlight favored local ingredients. Expect much-welcomed greens throughout the next few courses, such as artichoke and brussels sprouts. The chef has a special talent for taking heavier regional staples, such as lentils with pâté, and serving them proportionally so that these somehow come off as light and airy. The plating is playful and gentle without coming off as pretentious. And the service is "on fire"! I'm an obsessive water drinker, and I never once went dry.
The menu, I was told, changes every 3 weeks, for reasons of creativity and sourcing, so check in advance to see what's on offer.
