The Menu: Classics and New Bets
Eloise’s Lomas menu pays homage to French classics with a personal touch. Signature dishes like foie gras, escargots, and short rib a la bourguignon remain, while more daring options are introduced: a one-and-a-half kilogram pork chop with three butter versions, steak frites with a more complex sauce, erizo, caviar, and a carefully curated selection of seafood. The kitchen’s technical yet creative approach is evident in options like hamachi crudo with tahini emulsion, gnocchis in carrot puree sauce, and confit artichoke with vegetable escabeche.
