Fried Atlantic Bonito - €16.00
Let me introduce you to a dish that perfectly showcases the bold flavors of the Atlantic: Fried Atlantic Bonito. Known for its rich, meaty texture, the bonito is a prized fish that delivers both depth and complexity in every bite.
Here at Restaurante La Venus, we take great care to preserve the fish’s natural character. The bonito is lightly seasoned and fried just enough to create a crispy, golden crust, while the inside remains tender and juicy. The richness of the fish comes through beautifully, offering a flavor profile that's slightly more intense than tuna, yet balanced and not overly oily.
The crispy exterior gives way to a melt-in-your-mouth interior, where the full-bodied taste of the Atlantic sea is evident. A drizzle of fresh lemon adds a touch of acidity, lifting the dish and cutting through the richness of the fish, making each bite a perfect harmony of flavors.
This dish pairs beautifully with a glass of Chardonnay, whose citrus and subtle oak notes complement the robust flavors of the bonito. Alternatively, a cold Estrella Damm offers a refreshing contrast to the dish’s savory profile.
For those seeking a true seafood experience, the Fried Atlantic Bonito is an exceptional choice, celebrating the full, natural flavors of the ocean.
