# “10 Manos” – Join five Argentinian star chefs in Zurich

> The '10 Manos' (Diez Manos) is a rotating quintet of Argentina's top chefs who staged an innovative Argentine tasting dinner at the Rive Gauche restaurant in Zurich's Baur au Lac hotel as part of the Gustofestival 'Fuego y Pasión' 2018 program.

## Destination
Rive Gauche Restaurant, Baur au Lac Hotel, Talstrasse 1, 8001 Zürich, Switzerland

## When to go
The Zurich event took place in March 2018; subsequent 'Fuego y Pasión' 2018 stops included Ascona (May 31–June 3), Basel (July 6–8), and Solothurn (September 6–19).

## Why visit
A rare chance to experience a five-course innovative Argentine tasting menu prepared by some of Argentina's most acclaimed chefs, paired with wines from Susana Balbo and cocktails by South America's best barman, all within a luxury Zurich hotel setting.

## What to see
- **10 Manos chef lineup** — Rotating cast of Argentina's top culinary names including Mauro Colagreco (World's 50 Best #4, 2017), Narda Lepes, Fernando Trocca, Guido Tassi, and Fernando Mayoral.
- **Rive Gauche Restaurant** — Elegant fine-dining venue inside the historic Baur au Lac hotel in central Zurich.

## What to do
- **Attend a Gustofestival dinner** — Multi-course Argentine tasting menu with wine pairings by world's best sommelier Paz Levinson and cocktails by Tato Giovannoni; reserve in advance.
- **Try the signature dishes** — Highlights included scallop–raspberry–cilantro blossom, white asparagus with kaymak and morels, and entrecôte with a notably light chimichurri.
- **Wine pairing with Susana Balbo Wines** — Wines from Luján de Cuyo and Valle de Uco near Mendoza, including a Crios Chardonnay 2017 and Benmarco Expresivo 2015, selected to complement each course.

## Good to know
The Gustofestival is organized by Boris Walker and rotates between Swiss cities and Buenos Aires. The 10 Manos has no fixed crew or style; the menu varies from traditional to innovative depending on which chefs participate.
