About this Event
Join and for an unforgettable Argentine Asado — a celebration of open-fire cooking, bold flavours, and the joy of gathering around the table.
At the heart of the experience is Cordero a la Cruz, a traditional Argentine-style whole lamb, slow-cooked over flame and smoke for seven hours. Alongside it, enjoy a feast of traditional Argentine dishes, from hand-folded empanadas and flame-seared sweetbread skewers to grilled chorizo and morcilla, ember-roasted vegetables, and a decadent dulce de leche dessert.
Whether you're coming for the food, the fire, or the company, this is an opportunity to experience the traditions of Argentine asado and the magic of sharing a meal together.
