A LA CARTE MENU OUR STORY A cultural blend of Mediterranean and indigenous cooking, Argentine food has a distinctly European heritage. Early explorers brought with them cattle, poultry and vegetables in their provisions integrating with the local ingredients. Even the quintessentially Argentine dish, the empanada, was a gift from Spain - a beef and vegetable filled pastry, baked in the oven and eaten as a snack or starter for any meal. The expansive landscape of the country holds delights of its own in the rich grasses of the Pampas, ideal for cattle grazing and providing Argentina’s most famous contribution to world cuisine, beef. Chorizo, lomo, cuadril or ancho – however you like your steak cut, there’s only one way to cook it and that’s over an open flame. From the smoky campsite of the gauchos to the kitchens of the most sought after restaurants and chefs, the asado (barbecue) is a permanent fixture on their menu. Eaten with friends and family, the traditional Sunday asado can feature anything from sweetbreads to sausages, beef ribs to offal – but it’s the steak that remains the star of the show. Served hot and directly from the flames, sprinkled with salt, topped with chimichurri and served with a glass of Malbec. Gaucho restaurants celebrate a milestone 25th anniversary this year, having matured into a much-loved collection of special places to eat, known for the finest Argentine steak and wine in the UK with locations all across London and in Leeds, Manchester, Edinburgh and Birmingham. This menu features interpretations of dishes which have been loved across the company for many years and are considered classics. We have also introduced a selection of dishes which are a reflection of the innovation and creativity now inspiring a new generation of chefs and emerging restaurants celebrated across Latin America.
