Lobster, golden product in Menorca
Menorca is known for its paradisiacal beaches, crystal-clear waters, and rich gastronomy. Among the star products of the island, we find the Menorcan lobster, a crustacean with intense flavor and unique texture that has become a true golden product.
Why is lobster so special in Menorca?
The Menorcan lobster is raised in the crystal-clear waters surrounding the island, where a perfect ecosystem for its development is found. Its diet based on algae and small crustaceans gives it an unparalleled flavor, with a slightly salty touch and a firm, juicy texture.
In addition to its exceptional flavor, the Menorcan lobster is a sustainable product because fishing is done artisanally and responsibly, respecting the reproduction cycles of the species and marine ecosystems.
Numa Signature and the complete lobster experience
At Numa Signature Hotels, lobster is one of the flagship products on the menu. Both at the Amagatay and Morvedra Nou restaurants, you can enjoy lobster with eggs and potatoes, an emblematic dish that combines the tradition of broken eggs with the exquisite flavor of Menorcan lobster.
Furthermore, if you're looking to have a memorable gastronomic experience, let yourself be surprised by the different formats and textures where lobster is the main character on our menu.
At Numa Signature, we seek to share unique experiences such as participating in our lobster fishing excursions. At Morvedra Nou and Amagatay, we offer you the opportunity to go sailing at dawn with a local fisherman and learn about the traditional technique of catching this crustacean so you can later taste your own catch at the hotel restaurant, where it will be prepared according to your preference. One curiosity among others that you can learn is that the lobster comes out only once a month to search for food.
"The Menorcan lobster is unique," says Juanjo from Tasquita de Enfrente, the gastronomic head of Numa Signature Hotels.
What makes the Menorcan lobster so special?
The Menorcan lobster is special due to the privileged waters where it lives, which provide it with a unique life and nutrition. This translates into a distinctive flavor that sets it apart from the rest. That's why for many years, it has been the emblematic product on the island.
How can you enjoy lobster at the Amagatay and Morvedra Nou restaurants?
At Numa Signature Hotels, the daily freshness of the lobster is guaranteed thanks to local suppliers. It is presented in different preparations, such as fried with potatoes and eggs, stew, salad, among others, always respecting its flavors and properties.
The ambiance of Amagatay and Morvedra Nou, along with nature, the sound of birds, and the Menorcan breeze, makes tasting lobster in Menorca one of the best plans when visiting the island.
