Virgilio Martinez at Marea Ceviche and Pisco Bar
The chef from the world's number four restaurant comes to Melbourne.
Overview
The man behind the number four restaurant in the world is bringing his ceviche expertise to Melbourne. Virgilio Martínez, of Peru's acclaimed Central Restaurante, will be a guest of The Terrace in the Botanic Gardens on Friday, November 25. There, he'll spruik his new book and take ticketholders on a deep dive into the mouthwatering world of Peruvian cuisine.
Presented by Good Food Month, and hosted by Pastuso chef Alejandro Saravia, this one-night-only event will feature nine separate ceviche dishes spread over a number of different tasting stations. They'll include a Japanese number featuring marlin, parsnip, shiitake mushrooms and ponzu dressing, and the la leche de tigre made with the fish of the day, diamond shell clams, octopus tentacles and fried calamari.
Attendees will be able to interact with the chefs and get a feel for their technique. They'll also be greeted with pisco sours on arrival, and sip specially paired wines throughout the night. Tickets are $100 per person, or $145 if you want a copy of his book as well.
