If there’s one thing Local has got us used to, it’s colourful, well-balanced dishes, a menu packed with brunch, lunch and dinner options, and a delicious twist on healthy eating. Another staple? The seasonal menu change – a ritual that ensures quality, freshness, and ingredients at their seasonal best.

Ceviche

The new Summer menu has arrived – and it doesn’t disappoint. Start with the salmon and turbot ceviche, served with Odemira sweet potato purée and macadamia nuts (€13.10). For a vegetarian option that’s just as refreshing, the gazpacho (€5.90) is the perfect pick.

Moving on to mains, there are new highlights like the octopus with avocado “mayonnaise” (€22.80), now paired with a new sweet potato recipe, fennel, and delicious kale. Alternatively, try the oven-baked turbot, a new addition, served with white bean purée and Mediterranean vegetables (€23.50).

Vegetarians and plant-based food lovers haven’t been forgotten: the pad thai (€13.90) brings together rice noodles, Asian vegetables, edamame, bean sprouts and crunchy peanuts for extra texture. As for the house classics, like the quinoa with hummus or feta (€12.60), and the hot honey halloumi salad (€14.50), they’re still on the menu – now with a few seasonal twists to match the warmer days.

An honourable mention on the summer menu goes to the balsamic duck, served with burrata, nectarine, pistachios and homemade pesto over a bed of mixed greens (€22.20) – a fresh combination that’s sure to surprise.

As the end of the meal approaches, it’s time for the part there’s always room for: dessert. New arrivals include the tiramisu (€12.30) and stuffed Medjool dates (€2.70), as well as a brand-new coffee blend, specially developed by Delta Cafés’ Coffee House. Making a return are the passion fruit cheesecake (€4.80) and the berries with cashew cream (€6.70).

Group menus are still available, priced between €37 and €49 per person. You can choose from three options, all of which include a variety of starters, a main course, dessert and a drink. The ever-popular poké bowls are still going strong on the menu, alongside the ultra-fresh juices.

And since great service goes beyond just the food, there’s now a new way to order via biip: simply scan the QR code on your table to access the digital menu, place your order quickly, and even add extra items.
