Bahia Santandria’s Sole Stuffed with Leeks, classic elegance by the sea

Bep Al·lès/Santandria - Some dishes belong to that timeless restaurant cuisine that never goes out of fashion, because it combines skill, produce and a sense of presentation capable of turning service into part of the experience. Bahia Santandria’s sole stuffed with leeks is one of those specialities that reflects the history of a landmark restaurant in Cala Santandria.

The sole arrives elegantly presented, stuffed with leeks and served with a creamy sauce that enhances the delicacy of the fish without masking its flavour. The fine, silky texture of the sole finds in the leek a sweet, subtle vegetal counterpoint, while the rice and vegetables complete the dish with balance. The presentation, with the fishbone raised, adds a spectacular touch and recalls a style of dining-room cuisine that knows how to care for detail.

With one of the most privileged terraces on Santandria beach, Bahia keeps alive the charm of a classic restaurant specialising in fish, fresh seafood and rice dishes, ideal for enjoying elegant seaside cuisine by the water.
