Rosita, now serving lunch and dinner, has introduced its first a la carte menu. New bites to share include arepas (HK$98 for four), a Venezuelan cornmeal bread stuffed with chicken or avocado salad and empanadas (HK$118 for four), traditional Argentinian pastries with a choice of beef stew or a sweet corn humita filling. To kickstart a meal, guests can choose from the signature ceviche (HK$198) or beef tartare (HK$158), before digging into sharing-style main courses such as 28-days aged Argentinian beef (HK$488) and South American style rice with either Ping Yuen chicken (HK$628) or Spanish gambas roja (HK$780). A decadent torta de chocolate (HK$128), churros with dulce de leche (HK$68) and Grandma’s Flan (HK$98) are also available for a sweet finish.
Additionally, Rosita’s TacOmakase will be extended for June. Available on Monday evenings only, this omakase-style taco menu (HK$888 per guest) will begin with the likes of bocaditos, or snacks, featuring tostada de hamachi and avocado, and spot prawn, hamachi and sour pisco ceviche. The main event, however, is the selection of tacos, including chicharrón de pulpo (octopus) with yuzu, king oyster with cacahuate salsa (peanut chilli sauce), and duck carnitas with tamarind mole, among others.
