Delicioso. A tender, flame-kissed chargrilled beef fillet, served with vibrant purple sprouting broccoli for an earthy bite.

A rich carboncino sauce adds deep warmth, while a bright chervil salsa brings a burst of fresh herbs. Every element works in harmony to create an unforgettable dish.

Gather your favourite people, take a seat, and say buen provecho.
