Ignite Your Love for Mexican Food
With over a decade of expertise and a deep passion for Mexican flavours from celebrated lifestyle restaurants such as Rosa Negra and Cantina La Veinte, Chef Daniel Calderón Camacho has crafted a menu that’s a fusion of tradition and innovation. Every dish at El Santo is a knockout, inspired by the bold and spicy flavours of Mexico. Perfect for lighter bites to pair with agave-based cocktails. El Santo’s raw bar menu features the likes of Maya Ceviche – a refreshingly authentic Mexican ceviche of Sea Bass, with red onion, tomato, avocado and coriander – and Sashimi de Sandia–grilled watermelon sashimi, goats cheese pearly covered with sesame seeds, jalapeno flakes and ponzu sauce. Channelling the vibrance of Mexico, starters include Sopa de Tortilla–tomato base, deep fried tortilla julienne, panela cheese, avocado and chile ancho.
Highlights of the main course selection include Langostinos al Ajillo–tiger prawns, guajillo rub, garlic, chili de arbol flakes and olive oil and Salmon en Tamarindoo–grilled salmon marinated in tamarind sauce, served on a bed of spinach, cherry tomatoes, and yellow corn.
The Mexican dining experience would not be complete without a selection of Tacos and Quesadillas; El Santo’s include the Quesabirria–short rib slow cooked filled tortillas with cheese, cumin, chocolate, oregano, and traditional Mexican consomme and Tacos de Jamaica–deep-fried taquitos filled with cooked Jamaica flower, white onion, garlic, served with cream, lettuce, cheese and green salsa.
Chef Daniel’s pièce de resistance, though, is from the grill menu; Mole Sea Bass is cooked for up to 6 hours, and is grilled with 6 types of chillies. The resulting flavour is smokey, as opposed to spicy, with Mexican spiced chocolate. Classic desserts include Mezcal Banana Flambé–bananas flambéed in smoky mezcal and coffee-flavored Kahlua served alongside chocolate ice cream and the iconic classic dessert Tres Leches with Peaches.
