Cod and potato dip with dried tomatoes and eggs, walnut and garlic dressing
I am assuming this is the "zanguango" or "zanguango manchego", which seems to be a kind of "pesto" made with cod, potatoes, dried tomatoes and peppers, walnuts, garlic and olive oil.

Comment: "thanks so much to everyone for your help! My priority was to indicate a few of the ingredients of the dish, to try to get around the language barrier in case the waiters don't have the necessary level in English to be able to answer patron's questions. The glossary entry is what I put. I love the sound of the name in Spanish and I feel I must include this comment from Cecilia's link, as it strikes me as so true: "Alguna vez habrá que hablar de la originalidad de estos nombres que van desde el "atascaburras" a este "zanguango", nombre cuya musicalidad ya evoca los mejores presagios culinarios.""

Layabout's salad
Just a wild guess and fairly literal translation. Do you know the ingredients?

Zanguango Salad
Regional restaurants often have dishes with odd names like this. Leaving it untouched is better than having to reel off the list of ingredients, or your menu will look look like a recipe book.
Zanguango salad, and anybody who wants to know what's in it can ask the waiter - or be very bold and just order it.
