This 90-minute steak buffet runs on Saturdays from 11:30am to 1pm, and 1pm to 2:30pmâitâs highly recommended to book your meal here. You get to indulge in as many servings of 250g steaks as you can stomach, paired with their house-made chimichurri dip, creamy horseradish, mustard, and fragrant salt. Each diner also can enjoy one free glass of Malbec, Suntory Beer, prosecco, or soft drink.
Go for the âW.Blackâ Marinated Inside Skirt: grass- and cereal-fed, 38-day wet-aged Australian steak if you love heavier flavours. Wet-ageing is a process of storing the meat in a vacuum bag, which is then kept in a refrigerator, tenderising the meat while retaining its freshness and moisture.Â
We found this cut rich and dense, with a good char and smokiness on the outside, while retaining its juiciness and flavour within.
Otherwise, go for the grass-fed Argentinian âBlack Labelâ Ribeye thatâs dry-aged for 28 days. Grilled to a perfect medium-rare, this cut was more tender and easy to enjoy. It was lighter on the palate too, while still boasting a good amount of fat.
If you need more than just protein, add $10++ for your choice of two sides. The Agria Chips Provencal AKA garlic-infused chips tossed with parsley are a hot favourite.
Else, get your daily dose of greens with the Roasted Vegetables, served with a mildly spicy green sauce.
Whatâs special about Bochinche is their use of traditional Asado techniques, where slow-burning fires in a charcoal griller cook the meats, customarily skewered on metal frames called asadors. All their meats are also specially curated, aged and cut in-house, before they cook it with their wood-fired grill.Â
While youâre here, you should try their unique desserts as well. Order the Argentinian Doughnut ($19++) that sees doughnuts filled with dulce de leche, AKA milk thatâs simmered with sugar into a caramel-esque syrup, accompanied with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.Â
If youâre here with your lunch kakis on a weekday, you can also opt for the set lunch that starts from $35++.Â
