The ensaladilla that sets the standard at Asador Molí des Comte

In Ciutadella, talking about good food increasingly means talking about Asador Molí des Comte, an establishment that has become a benchmark for both locals and visitors. Within a solid, well-crafted menu, the Russian salad (ensaladilla)deserves special mention: a seemingly simple dish that here turns into an original and finely tuned proposal.

At first glance, as shown in the photograph, the dish already breaks away from expectations. The presentation is refined, with a creamy yet light texture, topped with prawns, a green touch reminiscent of fresh herbs or herb sauce, and finished with fish roe, adding colour and salinity. On the palate, its freshness stands out above all, along with a well-integrated pickled note that brings acidity and balances the creaminess of the mayonnaise without overpowering it.

The originality of the recipe avoids excess: it is a recognisable ensaladilla, reinterpreted with judgement and personality, proving that classic cuisine still has plenty to offer when handled with quality ingredients and intent.

Beyond the dish itself, Asador Molí des Comte delivers a well-rounded experience. The service is attentive, professional and friendly, accompanying the diner without being intrusive—an essential factor for a complete dining experience.

All in all, an ensaladilla that alone justifies the visit and reinforces Asador Molí des Comte as a must-visit address for good food in Ciutadella.
