Cascal menu: three cheese-filled small plates

A cheese filling can arrive inside pastry, an olive, or a sweet date. These three Cascal small plates offer quite different bites even when cheese appears in all three.

These three small plates were checked. Other saved entries are outside this guide’s comparison: Sizzling Shrimp’s Chinese chili wording differs from its English description. Saved menu descriptions are available in English and Chinese. Spanish descriptions are absent; English fallback text may appear.

Three different bases for a cheese filling

The wrapper and the presence of ham distinguish these choices.

Crisp turnover with mushrooms

Mushroom empanadas

Wild mushrooms and Manchego sit inside a crisp turnover, with truffle oil listed alongside. Choose this when the pastry wrapper matters more than a fruit or olive base.

Olive with two cheeses

Stuffed fried olives

Aged goat cheese and Manchego fill the olives before frying. The olive remains the central ingredient; this is not a plate of fried cheese alone.

Sweet fruit with cheese and ham

Grilled dates

The restaurant lists Cabrales cheese and Serrano ham with the dates. Unlike the other two examples, this combines fruit with cured meat; do not treat it as a meat-free cheese bite.

Choose the base, then the filling

Compare the outer ingredient before treating these as interchangeable cheese bites.

  1. 01

    Choose the outer ingredient

    Compare pastry, olives and dates first. That difference is more useful than grouping all three as cheese dishes.

  2. 02

    Check the filling

    Empanadas use mushrooms and Manchego; olives combine goat cheese and Manchego; dates pair blue cheese with ham.

  3. 03

    Keep this a small-plate comparison

    These examples do not establish a complete meal, serving size or today’s availability. Use the exact names when confirming an order.

Before choosing

Are the dates meat-free?

No: the restaurant’s description includes Serrano ham. The sweet fruit base does not remove that ingredient.

Does this cover the entire Cascal menu?

No. It compares three corroborated small plates. Other saved entries remain outside this review, including an inconsistent chili translation in Sizzling Shrimp.
