Main course specialities include the slowly roasted small shoulder of crispy Menorcan lamb, the twice roasted suckling pig with truffle oil, loin of hake with salsa verde and the wood grilled octopus, all served with potatoes and vegetables to complement the dish.
The dessert menu home made ice creams, fried chocolate truffles with passion fruit and ice cream, creamy coffee ice cream with baileys, figs with ice cream and Tast’s own special Gin Tonic ice cream.
