I've always wanted to try Argentine Cuisine so I've been bugging the family for quite sometime to try Gaucho Cocina y Vinos Argentino. Finally, they gave in.
We've been to
Robinson's Magnolia before but never noticed their conspicuous facade. It has small sign above with no visibility of the inside.
So when they opened the door for us, we were all stunned by its interiors.
Upon entering, we noticed that the chiller was filled with meat. The fire pit is occupied as well. When we passed by after our dinner, the chiller had less meat and the fire pit was empty.
Food
We had no idea what their serving size was. We just realized we may have over ordered when the dishes all arrived at the same time and filled our round wooden table.
Salads/Ensaladas
 |
| Ensalada Casera (290 php) |
The family just couldn't survived without veggies so we ordered the Ensalada Casera. It had mixed greens, poached organic egg, criola and Italian vinegrette. We loved this! It was quite a refreshing accompaniment for our meaty orders.
Slow-Roasted from the Fire Pit / El Pozo De Fuego (comes with Chimichurri Sauce, Organic Pickled Eggplant, Organic Pickled Zucchini, Organic Pickled Onions and unlimited steamed or garlic rice)
 |
| ♥ Cochino a la Cruz (760 php), ♥ Falda a la Cruz (330 php) and ♥ Cordero Entero a la Cruz (890 php) |
Our meal is focused on their specialty
Slow-Roasted from the Fire Pit so all of them are cooked the same way but differ in the kind of meat. The
Cochino a la Cruz is native free range suckling pig, the
Falda a la Cruz is beef and the
Cordero Entero a la Cruz is australian riased young lamb. All of them are equally savory and delicious! But, the texture varies. As to which is the best is only a matter of preference.
 |
| Chimichurri Sauce, Organic Pickled Eggplant, Organic Pickled Zucchini, Organic Pickled Onions |
The
Chimichurri Sauce, Organic Pickled Eggplant, Organic Pickled Zucchini, Organic Pickled Onions are really useful in making the meats from becoming overwhelmingly savory. I really liked the Chimichurri Sauce which has finely chopped parsley, oregano, onion, garlic, chilli pepper flakes, olive oil and lemon.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
We all loved our meaty dining experience at
Gaucho Cocina y Vinos Argentino. I'm glad that we had a great first time experience with Argentine Cuisine. I'm quite pleased that even my non-carnivorous family was able to appreciate the dishes here.
