A flawless first course – For seafood lovers, tangy ceviche or broiled mussels with corn, crab, and tomato present irresistible first courses. You can also choose between a variety of other appealing appetizers: spinach dip, chicharrónes, or chicken and black truffle croquettes. A mouthwatering main – Dine like a high roller on steak and crab, succulent prime rib, or a crispy, roasted cornish game hen with all the fixings—or experience the fascinating flavors of the ocean with scallop, shrimp, and squid seafood rice. Vegetable lovers, have no fear: Chef Garces is preparing a butter and Zamorana cheese broccoli that’s sure to satisfy in the same way as his meaty main dishes.
