Tonight, the che surprises you.
Our chef composes a journey for your table — travelling between the harbours of Cádiz and the markets of Marrakech, between Andalusian olive groves and Moroccan spice souks.
No long menu, no decision fatigue. Just sharing plates, dipping bread in olive oil, and taking your time.
Dit maakt La Sqala een van de beste plekken in Zwolle om samen te dineren.
— An evening in three movements —
A meal in three acts
Each with its own rhythm
I
The opening
El comienzo
Cold mezze, home-baked bread, Andalusian olives, preserved lemons. Small bites to set the evening in motion.

The heart
El corazón
Warm dishes from the kitchen. Prawn croquettes, mussels in tagine, roasted vegetables with ras-el-hanout.
III
The finale

Slow-cooked meat or fish, or a rich vegetarian tagine. Where the kitchen shows what it can really do.
