DALLAS, March 08, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fogo de Chão, the internationally-renowned steakhouse that allows guests to discover “what’s next” at every turn, is celebrating the season of warmer weather with a new spring menu. From a flavorful, bone-in cut and Market Table salads to a house-made dessert and more, Fogo’s new spring selections are now available for a limited time as part of the Full Churrasco Experience at all restaurants nationwide.
“This time of year marks a period of renewal and fresh beginnings when we can bring in-season fruits, vegetables and fire-roasted additions to our menu for all of our guests to explore and enjoy,” said Barry McGowan, Chief Executive Officer of Fogo de Chão. “At Fogo, we strive to bring our guests joy while dining out through our Brazilian hospitality and continued innovation to enhance their experience.”
Fogo’s innovative spring menu offerings include:
- Bone-In Beef Ancho Ribeye: Aged for 21 days for more flavor, this ribeye is slow-roasted on the bone to preserve the rich flavors of bone-in steaks.
- Whipped Ricotta with Crudité: Fresh ricotta cheese is topped with extra virgin olive oil, parsley, mint, roasted garlic and thyme, served alongside fresh vegetables.
- Roasted Eggplant: Marinated with peppadew peppers, garlic, capers and fresh herbs, the roasted eggplant is then tossed with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar.
- Apple Manchego Salad: Granny smith apples and manchego cheese are tossed with honey, lime zest and black mission figs.
- Cucumber Salad: Fresh cucumber served with pickled onion and Brazilian vinaigrette.
- Tomato Mozzarella Soup: Ripe tomatoes and fresh basil are blended with a touch of sour cream and Parmesan cheese, topped with buffalo mozzarella and Pão de Queijo croutons.
- Passion Fruit Mousse: Rich passion fruit mousse is topped with tart passion fruit glaze and a puffed pastry crisp.
Each of the spring menu additions pairs perfectly with Fogo’s signature fire-roasted meats, including Picanha sirloin and tender lamb chops. Fogo’s a la carte seafood options like Chilled Lobster and Shrimp appetizer and indulgent cuts like a Wagyu New York Strip can be added to any dining experience for even more variety and decadence.
