Tequila fans can look forward to a special evening as Chído Taco Lounge has announced a unique dinner as part of their monthly series.
The restaurant will be hosting guest chef Samir Dhurandhar from the popular Nick and Sam’s Steakhouse. Chef Dhurandhar will be preparing an amuse-bouche followed by a four-course menu.
Each dish will be paired with a different Fuenteseca tequila. Fuenteseca is a unique brand of spirit because it ages its expressions much longer than the industry average. Fuenteseca offers seven, 11, 15 and 18-year-old bottles, those in attendance will have the opportunity to try them all.
“We’re always excited for our monthly tequila dinners, but this one is extra special,” says Chído Taco Lounge owner Blaine McGowan. “The combination of Chef Samir with world-class Fuenteseca tequilas isn’t something that comes around too often, so this is a unique opportunity for our guests to sample excellent food and rare spirits during one unforgettable dinner.”
The menu will feature an ora king salmon aguachile amuse bouche with hibiscus, charred strawberry, avocado and papadum, paired with Fuenteseca Blanco Cosecha.
A first course of lobster al pastor with cold water Australian lobster tail, pineapple miso and nopales, paired with Fuenteseca 7.
