Sole Fish - €11.96

Allow me to introduce the delicate and flavorful Sole Fish, a true classic when it comes to seafood dishes. Known for its light, flaky texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor, sole is an ideal choice for those who appreciate a refined yet simple preparation that highlights the natural qualities of the fish.

Here at Restaurante La Venus, we fry the sole to golden perfection, preserving its soft, tender flesh while creating a delicate crispy exterior. The mild flavor of the sole makes it a versatile option, pairing beautifully with a touch of lemon and a hint of Mediterranean olive oil. This light dish doesn’t overwhelm the palate but instead delivers a clean, refreshing taste with each bite.

The gentle sweetness of the fish makes it ideal for a variety of pairings, but it’s particularly delightful alongside fresh, seasonal vegetables or a crisp green salad. A squeeze of lemon adds brightness to the dish, while the frying process gives it just enough texture to make each bite satisfying without being heavy.

For an elegant pairing, try it with a glass of Albariño. The wine’s crisp, vibrant character enhances the fish’s subtle sweetness, while its acidity cuts through the gentle richness of the fried preparation. Alternatively, a light Estrella Damm beer is a refreshing complement to the sole’s delicate flavor, offering a balance of crispness and light bitterness.

Perfect for those seeking a lighter seafood dish, the Sole Fish is a true favorite that brings out the best of Mediterranean simplicity and fresh, natural ingredients.
