NEWS | Doha restaurant to welcome lauded Mexican chef
Chef Auilles Chavez will post up at Vertigo within Banyan Tree Doha
Mexican chef Anquiles Chavez is flying over to Qatar for a guest appearance at Vertigo – Banyan Tree Doha at La Cigale Mushaireb’s latest restaurant.
Though the panoramic restaurant is centered on Pan-Asian cuisine, chef Chavez will be in the kitchen from October 5 to 9 injecting some of his own cultural influences into the menu.
Starters include guacamole as well as tuna tartare, while the main dishes feature the flauta de Borrego, a lamb stew, the hamour en mole, a catch cooked with a green mole sauce, and the signature wagyu slow-cooked short rib. For dessert, the chocolate Jango will be the star with chili chocolate mousse, raspberry jelly, and caramel glaze.
Chavez will conduct two live cooking masterclasses, on the sixth and seventh of the month. Those interested will be able to join the class for QAR300 per person.
Aurelio Giraudo, cluster general manager, Banyan Tree Doha at La Cigale Mushaireb, commented on the event: “We are extremely excited about the imminent visit of Chef Chavez. We are committed to delivering on our promise to bring unique activations through our brands and restaurants in Doha, and we are certain that this event will bring our guests in Qatar a sensational experience never to be had before.”
