Modern seasonal Mediterranean at Salisterra

With a heartfelt connection to his Italian roots and drawing inspiration from his time in Denia, Spain, along the Costa Blanca, and Menton, France, in the picturesque Côte d'Azur, Chaneton infuses his passion for Mediterranean cuisine into every dish at Salisterra. 

Chaneton describes crafting a menu that not only uplifts Mediterranean cuisine but also encapsulates the essence of warmth, generosity, and abundance synonymous with the Mediterranean region. Collaborating with Salisterra's head chef, Tony Leung, and the culinary team, they offer a contemporary twist on traditional dishes, using locally sourced ingredients and Mediterranean produce at the peak of their seasonal freshness. Dishes will change based on seasonality so you could be tasting something different in the ingredients whenever you visit. 

Enjoy set lunch courses (starting at $468) or à la carte options for lunch and dinner with portions great for sharing. Begin with enticing starters such as a selection of cured meats ($258), brie alongside a walnut tart to awaken your palate, and Spanish Croquetas filled with bechamel and ham ($58). Move on to savour a tangy prawn crudo featuring Obsiblue prawns marinated in a zesty lemon sauce vierge ($228) and a satisfying crunchy salad of poached and raw asparagus paired with grapefruit, mint, and a Greek yoghurt dressing. For sharing, consider the Salisterra Mezze Platter with ample portions of Tzatziki, baba ganoush, taramasalata, hummus, Kalamata olives, and more ($208).

Seafood lovers can indulge in dishes like grilled octopus with a Greek-style rub of pomegranate and parsley ($208) and Mediterranean sea snails al ajillo with umami puy lentil stew and Provencal herbs ($198). Mains include Ciuppin, a fish stew served with Ligurian-style seafood broth and preserved tomato base with crusty bread on the side, and a whole red mullet cooked tableside with lemon and verbena steam. Meat enthusiasts can opt for roasted spring chicken marinated with lemon and herbs ($288) or the prosciutto-wrapped pork tenderloin with tomatoes and capers ($348), among other options.  

Leave some space for desserts, as they offer a tempting array that includes frozen Greek yoghurt with walnuts and acacia honey, dark chocolate madeleines served with chocolate ice cream, and Spanish churros dusted with cinnamon and served with dark chocolate sauce (all priced at $98). Complement your meal with a selection of white and red wines, or enjoy refreshing cocktails from their new menu. Try the Sour Cherry Smash, a tequila-based cocktail ($138), or opt for the Sunset Dreams, a whisky-based concoction infused with strawberry and grapefruit flavours and topped with an orange and thyme foam ($138).
