Asado presents: Australiana **SOLD OUT

  • Asado 6 Riverside Quay Southbank, VIC, 3006 Australia (map)

**This event has sold out

Nostalgic Aussie dishes get a modern makeover, fired by Argentinian cooking methods. 

Asado is bringing back the Australian classics that you know and love with an innovative edge, using only the finest produce and skillful cooking techniques. 

Junior Sous Chef Dolan Morris, alongside Head Chef Camilo Guzman, has prepared a 6 course menu unlike any other.

Rethink the “dimmies” from your local fish & chip shop: we've created stunning emu empanada dim sims, alongside a reinvented version of charred campfire damper with smoked butter and lemon myrtle. 

Instead of the classic meat pie, think delicious confit rabbit tart with Tasmanian pepperberry. Instead of a Bunnings snag, think Wild Boar sausage with bush tomato chutney. 

Taste Australian meats like you haven't before, with fresh and creative dishes such as crocodile ceviche and chargrilled kangaroo rump. We're adding an Aussie edge to Argentinian condiments, with vegemite and mountain pepper marinade and saltbush chimichurri.

Relive the nostalgia of classic Aussie dishes, this time with an exciting Argentinian influence, and watch two cuisines collaborate across the ocean.
