Hand-Dived Scallop, Morels & Jamón Dashi.
A celebration of hand-dived Isle of Skye scallops, served raw to showcase their natural sweetness, finished with a grating of their own coral bottarga.
Alongside, morels nearing the end of their short season are filled with rock shrimp and caramelised shallots, bringing depth and richness to the dish.
At the table, we pour our jamón dashi - one of Nieves’ signature creations. Inspired by the classic Japanese broth of kombu and katsuobushi, it is reimagined through the lens of Spanish cooking with the addition of jamón, creating a deeply savoury broth that ties the dish together.
A meeting of seasonality, technique and umami.

Nougat Mousse, Pomegranate Molasses Ice Cream & Olive Oil.
A rich and indulgent dessert featuring turrón - a soft nougat of almonds and honey - from Jijona in Alicante.
The mousse is layered with a sharp pomegranate ice cream, bringing brightness and balance, finished with olive oil and garrapiñada hazelnuts for texture.
Meticulously made by our wonderful pastry chef Julio, who has been creating desserts alongside Nieves at Sabor for over seven years.

Calçots & Romesco.
The most important day in our diary at Sabor! Only available for short few months each year, early spring in Catalonia marks their triumphant return.
Cooked on the Josper for a gentle smokiness and char, the calçots are served with a warm romesco sauce of almonds, toasted bread, roast tomatoes and dried chillies, emulsified with Arbequina olive oil, sharpened with sherry and moscatel vinegar and finished with toasted almonds and chives.
A seasonal favourite that captures the simplicity and generosity of Catalan cooking.

La Mesa Specials - Pt.1, Andalusian Gazpacho with Sardines from Cádiz.
Exclusive to La Mesa, this classic chilled soup from the south of Spain marks the arrival of warmer days, soon to be gracing tables across the country.
Sweet, ripe tomatoes are blended into a traditional Andalusian gazpacho, served with sardines from Cádiz for salinity and richness - a simple pairing that speaks to the coastal cooking of southern Spain.

The Sabor team have taken full advantage of the recent seasonal shift, with verdant greens at the heart of the specials board.
English asapargus is cooked over coals until lightly charred and served with a cream of Marcona almonds, fresh herbs, and a grey mullet bottarga, before finishing with crisp garlic chips.
You have a short window to embrace this produce at it’s peak, and it’s an opportunity we’ll never miss!

Tuna Brioche with Smoked Ricotta, Yellowfin Tuna Tartare & Papada
Brioche is caramelised on all sides, then finished in the oven until crisp on the outside and soft within. Spread with a smoked ricotta mousse - light, airy, and gently sweet.
On top, finely cut yellowfin tuna tartare, dressed with lime, sesame, Arbequina olive oil and soy, bringing brightness and depth. Thin slices of papada are laid over and briefly warmed until just translucent.
A Counter special, championing both land and sea.

Hake, Suquet & Peas
This dish celebrates English peas at their peak - sweet, bright and full of life - served with Cornish hake.
The hake is cooked a la plancha and set over a rich suquet - a traditional Catalan stew - of red mullet and prawn, with oxtail and veal trotter lending depth and a natural silkiness.
Finished with Arbequina and parsley oil.

A shift in the seasons - finally - and with some beautiful new produce arriving at Sabor. 🌱
As ever, delivers the goods: hand-dived scallops plucked from the cold, clear waters of Brixham, arriving perfectly sweet and firm. The bounty continues with Skrei cod, razor clams, pink bream, red mullet, lemon sole and Irish oysters.
On land the signs of spring continue, with Yorkshire rhubarb, peas still nestled in their pods, broad beans, and the first English peas and green asparagus. With Spanish climates a little warmer, we welcome wild garlic, calcots and artichokes from Catalonia and Murcia, and sweet Tropea onions.
Each ingredient chosne at its peak, shaping the specials board week in and week out.

Tropea Onion Tart with Black Winter Truffle
A last hurrah for winter truffles, adorning a rich tart of Calabrian Tropea onions, chargrilled until soft and used whole to form the base of the tart, before baking until golden and finishing with a miso and fino caramel.
Topped with Canarejal cheese from Castilla y León, gently melting between the layers of onion.
Luxurious and rich, this is one for sharing.

Artichokes, poponcino, and black garlic. 🌿
This time of year artichokes are at their best - dense, and full of flavour - ready to be celebrated in simple, confident cooking.
Ours hail from Murcia, slowly confit in olive oil and then fried to yield crisp, golden edges. Served with piparras, poponcino (sweet baby peppers), and a black garlic aioli, finished with Coppa Ibérica de Bellota and a soy and Fino-cured egg yolk.
Now on the specials board, only available at The Counter.

Fabes, Red Mullet & Mussels.
Fabes - large white beans from Asturias - are traditionally cooked in winter stews, served locally with pork and cured meats. Along the coast, they’re just as often paired with seafood.
Our version simmers the fabes in a rich red mullet and prawn stock, before gently poaching the mullet atop the stock. Steamed mussels are added at the last moment, bringing depth and sweetness.
A winter staple, shaped by the flavours of the coast.

Socarrat. 🧡
It all begins with a bisque enriched with saffron, dried guindillas, and choricero peppers, infused with roasted chicken wings for body, before being used to gently cook the rice.
This is dressed with a milk saffron aioli, seasonal morcilla de bellota, and English red mullet and queen scallops grilled in chicken fat, with a final flourish of trout roe.
A glimmering meeting of land and sea.

Porthilly Oyster, Bergamot Granita & Citrus Oil.
Native oysters from Porthilly, harvested from the Camel Estuary in Cornwall, where pristine Atlantic waters impart a distinctive sweetness and mineral finish.
Served here with a bergamot granita and citrus oil, made using the same fragrant fruits from the Todolí Citrus Foundation in Valencia - bringing brightness and lift to the briny depth of the oyster.
A quiet celebration of season and place.

A season of surprising abundance, winter’s arrival at Sabor sees our fish counter gleaming with fresh catch, from John Dory and brill, to turbot, langoustines and oysters, each benefitting from the biting waters of the Atlantic.
From the soil comes black trompette and black truffle, both rich and complex, plus a full spectrum of sprouts and bitter leaves - Castel Franco, Treviso, Tardivo, pink radicchio and puntarelle - a vivid counterpoint to the richer dishes of the season.
As always, you’ll find each of these gracing our specials board throughout January.

A year of incredible travel, opportunity, creativity, and growth - 2025 has been wonderful at Sabor. 💙

Here’s to the next one!

Winter Leaves 🌱 ❄️
Puntarelle and radicchio in their many forms, Castel Franco, Treviso, and Tardivo, dressed with a Manchego and anchovy vinaigrette and finished with Valencian citrus sourced from the Todolí Citrus Foundation, each selected for their brightness and perfume.
A vivid, seasonal counterpoint to the richer dishes of winter.
04/12/2025
Cuttlefish Pappardelle, a Sabor classic for good reason. 💙
Not quite as simple it may seem: the “pappardelle” is made from hand-cut ribbons of cuttlefish, folded through a rich basil pesto, a touch of chilli, and finished with crisp, golden breadcrumbs.
A dish defined by precision and patience, served only at The Counter.
28/11/2025
Red Mullet Meatballs.
Red mullet from Brixham, cleaned and b***d before being prepared as we would a traditional albóndiga, mixed with caramelised onions, milk-soaked bread, garlic, parsley and a touch of paprika.
The sauce is a labour of love: a rich jus made from the fish bones, slowly cooked with veal trotters for texture and depth - a two-day process that impartsa a beautiful silkiness.
The meatballs are gently fried and finished in the mullet jus, topped with crisp purple kale for contrast.
From Devon to El Asador - fresh, seasonal seafood shaping Sabor’s specials.
