Ably assisted by two of his sisters (Esther often helps out in the kitchen while Sandra works front of house) and his nephew Jesús, Nacho Manzano invites us on a magical culinary voyage back to his origins, his roots, and the land of his birth, as he draws on the flavours of the Asturias region from a contemporary perspective. In this stunning, remote location surrounded by mountains, Casa Marcial is much more than a restaurant; it bears witness to the close bond the chef forged with his local environment during his childhood. Passion, respect, love and hospitality all contribute to a symphony of sensations on the à carte (featuring Casa Marcial’s signature dishes) as well as the tasting menus (Nordeste “El Cachucho”, Nordeste “El Fitu” and La Salgar), all of which focus on exquisite produce sourced in the Cantabrian Sea and zero-mile ingredients in a bid to support rural development. Standout dishes here include grilled teardrop peas with hake cheek and mushrooms, as well as the array of freshwater fish which are always cooked to perfection.
