Five-Course Truffle Dinner in Roquetas de Mar

A coastal venue embraces the truffle

Pa ‘Levante, perched right on the Avenida Antonio Machado promenade in Roquetas de Mar, is inviting locals and visitors to a unique culinary event on the evening of 24 September. Known for its dedication to fresh, quality ingredients and inventive cooking, the restaurant’s chef Paco Rodríguez has put together a carefully crafted five-course menu that uses truffle as the central theme. The event offers a chance to taste the region’s maritime atmosphere alongside the earthy richness of truffle, in both savoury and sweet dishes.

A thoughtful five-course experience

Chef Paco’s menu begins with a warm red prawn carpaccio drizzled with almond cream and thinly sliced truffle, setting an elegant, delicate tone. Following this, a creamy boletus mushroom soup arrives, garnished with crispy egg yolk, bacon from beef, and a fine grating of truffle to add that unmistakable aroma. The third course showcases ravioli dressed in a luscious parmesan sauce enhanced with truffle butter—an indulgent, creamy bite that balances richness with perfume. The main course features tender, shredded beef cheek slow-cooked with Port wine and infused with truffle, delivering a deep, comforting flavour. Unusually for a truffle menu, dessert involves leche tostada (a Spanish milk custard), honey ice cream, pine nuts, and truffle, offering a surprising sweet finish that highlights the truffle’s versatility beyond savoury dishes.

More than a meal: a truffle masterclass

The dinner includes a special presentation by Carmen from Strepitosa Truffles, who will share insights into the fascinating world of truffles. Guests can learn about different varieties, their aromas, origins, and what makes truffles so prized in cooking. This adds a local and educational touch to the evening, enriching the dining experience beyond just tasting.

Details for booking

The event is one night only, with limited seating to ensure an intimate setting. At 65 euros per person excluding drinks, it’s a focused culinary occasion for those who appreciate creative cooking and this exquisite ingredient.
