Being out on the water, feeling the island breeze, and handling the fresh, raw beauty of the day's catch triggered an exceptional burst of inspiration. The connection was so deep, and the ocean’s influence so absolute, that they designed this new seven-course tasting menu as a pure tribute to the sea. In fact, the maritime inspiration runs so deep that practically every single course on this exclusive journey showcases the ocean's finest treasures.

Here is the step-by-step culinary voyage, directly connected to that memorable day off:

The Seven-Course Sensory Journey

1. Black Cod Miso Croquettes
The voyage begins with a tribute to the deep sea, offering a stunning seafood-driven reinterpretation of one of Nobu’s most legendary icons. In this bite-sized masterpiece, the signature black cod miso is transformed into an incredibly creamy center. The caramelization of the miso brings a deep, rich umami flavor that perfectly balances the crispy exterior—a technical delight sure to be adored by true Nobu lovers.

2. Sea Bass Sashimi with Spicy Lemon Dressing
Continuing the ocean narrative, this course features pristine sea bass, highly prized in high cuisine for its delicate and buttery texture. Presented in elegant, thin slices, it captures the raw, refreshing energy of the open water. The addition of a vibrant spicy lemon dressing is absolutely brilliant, delivering a sharp hit of salinity, acidity, and gentle heat that immediately prepares your palate for the next maritime chapter.

3. Toro Tataki with Sesame and Truffle
In this third chapter, the spotlight shines brightly on the king of the blue ocean: the rich and buttery toro (bluefin tuna). Mirroring the luxurious depths of the sea, the melt-in-your-mouth fat of the tuna meets the earthy depth of black truffle and a black sesame dressing, creating a highly sophisticated and deeply satisfying flavor profile.

4. Nobu Sushi Selection
Next is a course dedicated entirely to the raw, unadulterated purity of the sea. This meticulously curated selection of nigiri showcases a spectacular array of fish—featuring exquisite cuts of kinmedai, rich salmon, delicate sardine, and savory eel (unagi). Prepared with the precise, master-level knife work and technique our sushi chefs are famous for, it is the ultimate expression of our day on the water. For many, this represents the absolute finest sushi to be found on the island of Ibiza.

5. Local Sea Bass with Chili Garlic and Sake Soy
This course serves as a direct bridge to our team’s fishing journey, utilizing locally caught sea bass from our own Balearic waters. Because the local variety is firmer and less fatty than its Chilean counterpart, the culinary team pan-sears it to perfection. Enhanced with delicate notes of garlic and sake soy, this preparation beautifully highlights the natural, clean flavors of the Mediterranean we sailed upon.

6. Japanese A5 Wagyu with Foie Gras and Teriyaki
If this maritime journey must momentarily return to dry land, it does so for the ultimate epicurean indulgence, and Chef Enrico’s personal crowning jewel of the entire menu. This dish is the chef's undisputed favorite, representing a masterclass in flavor harmony and texture. Ultra-premium Japanese A5 Wagyu is seared to melt-in-the-mouth perfection, paired with the buttery, velvet suntuosity of foie gras and finished with a delicate, glossy teriyaki glaze. The result is a sublime, multi-layered crescendo of umami and rich elegance that effortlessly balances the lighter coastal chapters that came before.

7. Yuzu and Yogurt Mousse (Mock Strawberry)
To close the voyage, the pastry team at Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay brings us back to the coastline with a gorgeous, sweet nod to the island. Celebrating the bright, fresh flavors of seasonal strawberries, this visually stunning dessert pairs a light yogurt mousse with the refreshing, sharp citrus of yuzu—cleansing the palate like a cool coastal breeze and leaving a bright, memorable finish.
