We don't just write a menu. We write the rhythm of a good day.

Sometimes we crave something light. Other times, a hearty, leisurely lunch, a new flavour, or simply a dessert worth staying a little longer for. Dorothea's menu is built around moments like these.

A creative Dorothea dish — Every plate starts with an idea

The Dorothea menu

Favourites that stay. New dishes that surprise.

We deliberately keep our menu concise. This gives every dish room to have its own character, while leaving space for seasonal ideas, daily specials and whatever arrives fresh in the kitchen.

A concise menu, many flavours

Familiar ingredients with Dorothea's own character.

Signature dishes

A few plates, that tell our story well.

We are especially proud of the dishes that show Dorothea's variety, creativity and our attention to ingredients all at once. These plates are a good example of how familiar flavours meet fresh ideas in our kitchen.

Coconut cream soup

Silky, fragrant and easy to adapt, this is a Dorothea favourite. The vegan version is a complete dish in its own right, while chicken or prawns make it richer and more distinctive.

Pike-perch fillet with herb butter

Delicate pike-perch is complemented by subtle butter and fresh herbs. Served with parsley potatoes and Dorothea salad, it is an elegant, fresh and harmonious main course.

Bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin

Juicy pork tenderloin brought together by the smoky character of bacon, green peppercorn sauce and creamy potato gratin. A hearty dish with carefully balanced flavours.

Walnut brownie

Soft inside and richly chocolatey, with crunchy walnuts, vanilla ice cream and fresh fruit. Warm and cold, creamy and crisp textures come together in every bite.

There is always a new idea

“Sometimes the best dishes stay for just one day.”

Flavour of the day

Today something different may reach your plate, than yesterday.

We love it when the market, the weather or a sudden idea changes the course of the day.

That is why, alongside our permanent favourites, new soups, main courses, desserts and daily specials regularly appear at Dorothea. We often share them first on our social page — fresh from the kitchen.
