Winner of Exquisite Awards 2024 – Best New Steakhouse:
Chupacabras
At Chupacabras, the ambience is a captivating mix of rugged natural stones, dim lighting, and the mesmerising dance of flickering flames. The scene is completed by a bonfire that offers an unforgettable view of the lush jungles of Sayan, setting the stage for a dining experience steeped in mystique and flavour.
Inspired by the legendary South American creature renowned for its taste for fine meats, Chupacabras offers a gastronomic journey like no other. An Argentinean Chef Mauro Santarelli has created a menu that celebrates the flavours of South America, with a focus on premium cuts of meat with a modern twist. With a steadfast passion for diverse flavours and endless curiosity for new culinary horizons, Chef Santarelli infuses each dish with his wealth of experience and innovation, grilling over wood-fired flames to accentuate the natural textures and smoky essence of the finest ingredients.
Start your evening with Humita, a dish with deep roots in pre-Hispanic South America. At Chupacabras, this classic dish is elevated with pancetta, provolone cheese and red chimichurri. As the night progresses, the spotlight turns to Chupacabras’ wagyu flank steak. Grilled to perfection according to your preference, this dish highlights the rich, bold flavours of premium meats, enhanced by the smokiness of the wood-fire grill. Renowned for its exceptional marbling and tenderness, the flank steak is a star of the asado tradition, where meats are slow-grilled over an open flame, embodying the spirit of South American cuisine.
Adding a personal touch to the experience, the chef will arrive at your table with a tray of meats, allowing you to select your cut and specify your preferred doneness. Accompanying the chef is a salsa sommelier, who presents a curated selection of salsas – from tangy chimichurri to creamy huncaina – designed to perfectly complement your steak. For wine aficionados, Chupacabras’ sommelier offers a guided tour of the wine cellar, helping you find the ideal pairing to elevate your meal.
