Bu’s new menu is a meaty one but caters to vegetarians too

Abu Dhabi’s Bu! Trinity restaurant has launched a new menu which includes more vegetarian options across their offerings as well as heartier stand alone meat dishes.

The Pan Latin restaurant, which is located in the Hub on level 4 of the World Trade Centre Mall, offers a selection of dishes and portion sizes ideal for sharing.

The new seasonal menu, which came into effect on Saturday (April 8) continues to offer a wide selection of choices.

When it comes to the appetisers, the Camaron Pil Pil (prawns, garlic, parsley, lime and sherry vinegar) will no doubt be popular, along with the well-presented Res Tataki Y Tuetano — Japanese beef, marrow, chimichurri, pecorino and puffed rice — served atop a beef bone.

The ceviche list is extensive too, and includes a vegetarian option (Ceviche Vegateriano — green tomato, jicama, avocado, green Aji and truffle) that will impress the non-meat eaters out there.

Aside from this, the ceviches menu includes Robaldo (sea bass, onion, Aji, Leche de Tigre, cancha and sweet potato) and Atun (tuna, soy, wasabi, lime, orange, green aji and sesame oil). All of these dishes from the raw bar start from Dh45 per serve.

For the meat lovers there is plenty to choose from. Bu’s Las Carnes (meat) dishes include the Lomo Al Trapo (Wagyu beef tenderloin, non-alcoholic red wine, roasted garlic and chimichurri), which at a cost of Dh620 per serving must be savoured, and the Costillar (short ribs, fried noodles, Jalapeno barbecue sauce and smoked pineable — Dh150) and of course the stock-standard Ossobuco (Dh145).

If you like a good seafood mix, then the Paila Marina (cod, mussels, scallops, shrimp and parsley pot dish) will likely tempt you (Dh145).

And if that’s not enough, the selection of tacos, anticuchos (skewers), empanadas (stuffed pastries) and Sopa Y Ensaladas (soups and salads) should satisfy even the fussiest of eaters.

There are six dessert dishes to choose from along with two platters of sweets which can be shared. The cheesecake alfador and the choco chili mango appear the standouts, but you likely can’t go wrong with the churros or pina colada flan.

Bu's dishes start from Dh30 and extend right up to Dh620. For more on the new menu visit www.butrinity.com/
