One of our favourite London exports, Gaucho, has been welcomed to Hong Kong and we couldn’t wait to sample the delicious Argentinian steak house. Set in a trendy and buzzing venue, Gaucho boasts stylish interiors, great central location, and a meat menu that rivals some of the city’s top steakhouses. We couldn’t resist starting with their signature ceviche sampler which included smaller portions of their refreshing Ecuadorian ceviche, tuna ceviche and scallop tiraditos. We continued with their fresh and tasty Crab Causita with egg, lime and avocado, and their aromatic Argentine King Prawns with morcilla, fresh orange and romesco. It was definitely hard to choose from their board of fresh steaks, but being big fans of a great cut of fillet, the Chrurrasco de Lomo was a high on our list. Marinated to perfection and cooked at a perfect medium rare, we enjoyed every bite of the tender and juicy steak which was packed full of flavour without any accompanying sauces. We also sampled their delicious cut of thick, tender Bife de Chorizo (sirloin) which features an indulgent strip of crackling and was again full of flavour and cooked perfectly. Make sure to save room for dessert and order the decadent Dulce de Leche Fondant, which was delightfully rich and creamy and was one of the tastiest desserts I have had in a while. We loved the list of Argentinian wines which went perfectly with out meal and the helpful staff who were incredibly knowledgeable about the restaurants history, menu, and produce. A great date night, business dinner, or just if you are craving a perfect steak.
