Gaucho's ceviche and Tiradito dishes have become legendary, through the quality and freshness of their seafood which is cured with citrus juices and traditionally served with red onion, chilli and coriander. Their Ecuadorian Ceviche will be joined by both an Argentine baby squid ceviche and a lobster ceviche, which is served in a white gazpacho sauce. This summers' three Tiraditos are tuna, king scallops and salmon. Gaucho's founder Zeev Godik, Comments: "The new menu will include a mouth-watering range of seasonal Argentine food specialities rarely seen in the UK. Fernando Trocca's new menu has already been very well received - great quality food can only be made with the freshest ingredients to produce such depth of flavour." For private dining guests who have ordered from the 'group sharing' menus, Gaucho have devised three menus of which the core element is a Beef Experience of lomo (fillet), chorizo (sirloin) and ancho (rib eye) is presented in whole cuts and served tableside.
