Topside tartare with Tomasu and sour cream
:quality(10):blur(10,10))
"Various cuts of beef are excellent for tartare. Bavette works well, and topside is another great option. We prefer a pure approach to dressing: using Tomasu, sour cream, and cherry leaves. We also frequently incorporate garum a fermented sauce similar to fish sauce or soy sauce, but made with Rubia Gallega beef or added flavor."
