AT Raymi you will enjoy a Valentine’s Day six-course tasting menu for $65 that features three starters, two main courses and a decadent dessert. An additional wine pairing is available for $25 per person to compliment this vibrant cuisine.
Each dish is created to excite and tempt your palates – from the first bite of aphrodisiac oysters all the way through to the rich chocolate dessert. And to set the tone for a truly romantic meal for two the tasting menu comes with a complimentary glass of champagne and a rose.
Paramours will start with Oysters, followed by Lobster (causa, aji amarillo potato puree, avocado, spicy mayo) and Beets (mizuna, crème fraiche, haucatay, pistachio). For a third course, diners transition to the main courses of Halibut (a lo macho, mussles, shrimp, calamari, aji panca cream sauce) and Braised Short Ribs (seco, cilantro). Concluding their perfect date night a decadent chocolate dessert for two will end things on a sweet note.
Further setting the “tone” of the evening, there will be a live band performance. Diners can revel in the romantic melodies of the Christelle Durandy Quartet who will be performing from a collection of Latin American genres such as Peruvian Valses, boleros and tangos.
If a six-course meal is a too indulgent the full menu will also be available including Raymi’s traditional and modern plates like hanger steaks, seafood with jasmine rice, or an array of flavorful ceviches and tiraditos. See the photos in this post for some of their signature dishes. Happy Valentine’s Day!!!
