Argentinian BBQ - Casa Esquina

Will Quartel

We explore the origins and traditions of Argentinian BBQ with Casa Esquina executive chef Will Quartel. Casa Esquina is a Mendoza-inspired restaurant taking up residence on the corner of Balmain's Elliott and Darling Streets within a historic Victorian mansion. Argentinian influence goes beyond the menu; it's woven into every detail. From the central fire, to the lively music that connects everyone in the space, Casa Esquina embodies the Argentinian spirit of shared meals and deep connection. On the last Sunday of the month during the Summer season, Casa Esquina hosts its Sunday Summer Asado where the courtyard is transformed into a fire-cooking spectacle as the chefs cook Asado meats over the open-flame BBQ. Experience the flavours and lively atmosphere of Argentinian cooking and live music.
