Launching at all 43 sites across the UK on 29th September, the menu includes a whole host of brand new seasonal starters, main dishes, desserts and cocktails.
Perfect for sharing, the new Smoked Haddock Croquetta’s are packed with fish, spiked with red chilli and served with a zingy salsa - the ultimate winter-warmer starter. Or why not try the new vegetarian-friendly Black Bean Bolinhos (fritters) for a true taste of classic Brazilian market food.
The new must-try-main for September is the Las Iguanas Ribeye – 16oz of prime steak on the bone, char-grilled to your liking, served with chunky molho a campanho, tomato salsa and a choice of mixed sweet potato and cassava fries or salad and fresh herb chimichurri or chipotle butter.
There’s also a lively new Seabass dish on the menu which seafood lovers will love – a perfectly cooked Seabass fillet sat on a bed of spring onion and garlic rice with white crab and peeled king prawns in a tomato, coriander, basil, parsley, achiote and red pepper sauce.
As for vegetarians, there’s a fabulous new Quinoa Salad to try out, comprising of red and white quinoa, black beans, roasted sweet potatoes, charred sweet corn tossed in a chunky tomato salsa and lime juice on thick creamy guacamole. Served with cranberry chilli salsa, sweet roquito pepper drops and topped with crisp corn tortilla strips and coriander.
