Six by Nico restaurant brings the vibrant spirit of modern Mexico with its contemporary and refined take on Mexican food and drink to their restaurants this Summer.
Inspired by the country’s extensive and sophisticated culinary culture ‘Mexico’ aims to transport diners from the hazy cactus deserts of Tijuana to the vibrant, bustling streets of Mexico City with each course. This six-course tasting menu, rich in colour and flavour combines elements of both contemporary Mexican street food and ancient culinary classics to provide guests with a taste of the country’s flavourful history.
Chef Nico Simeone and his team invite guests to join the fiesta this Summer with a seductive trip to the heart of Mexico. Mexico may be on the other side of the world but this new dining experience will draw guests even closer to Latin America at both Six by Nico restaurants in Glasgow and Edinburgh from Tuesday June 26th.
The new six course tasting menu includes CHICKEN THIGH TACO – Guacamole, Strawberry Salsa, Whipped Creme Fraiche; NACHOS – Heritage Tomato, Housemade Queso Fresco, Avocado Gazpacho; ELOTE – Sweetcorn Risotto, Green Chorizo, Pickled Red Peppers; SEA BASS CHILPACHOLE MIXTO – Mussel Escabeche, Crab Mole, Sikil Pak, Orange and PORK CHEEK BARBACOA – Refried Beans, Tomatillo, Rainbow Chard, Crackling.
And it wouldn’t be Mexico without a taco. Fiesta goers will love the sixth dish on the menu that offers a latin twist on the dessert with a CHOCOLATE TACO – Tonka Bean Ganache, Banana Ice Cream, Chipotle & Banana Caramel.
Chef Nico Simeone said:
“I think our Mexico themed tasting menu gives guests the opportunity to try different colours, textures and flavours that they may not have discovered before. Mexican food is fantastic with a lot of flair, colours and we aim to offer a diverse and delicious range of dishes that bring the culture and history of the country all together in one bite.”
The menu launches on June 26th and will be available for 6 weeks until Sunday 5th August at the Glasgow restaurant in Finnieston and the Hanover Street restaurant in Edinburgh.
