Molí des Comte’s Fried John Dory, seafaring tradition in Ciutadella

Some fish, when prepared simply, reveal all the nobility of the product. The fried John Dory with garlic at Asador Molí des Comte, in Ciutadella, is a proposal that brings back the direct flavour of traditional seafaring cooking: fresh fish, good frying, garlic and a simple garnish.

The John Dory arrives cut into portions, with a light golden fry that respects the fine, white and delicate flesh of this highly prized fish. The garlic adds aroma and character, while the potatoes and fresh herbs complete a tavern-style dish, free from unnecessary embellishment and designed to enjoy the clean flavour of the sea. It is an honest, recognisable and very Menorcan preparation, ideal for those who value well-treated product.

Located in the old granaries of the flour mill of the Counts of Torre Saura, Molí des Comte combines grilling, home-style cooking, Menorcan dishes and product-led specialities in one of Ciutadella’s most distinctive spaces.
