Fuegian lamb in downtown Ushuaia: stew and empanadas at Küar 1900
Fuegian lamb is Tierra del Fuego's typical meat: it is raised on the island's estancias and has an intense flavour unlike anywhere else. At Küar 1900, on San Martín street, you can try it two ways.
Fuegian lamb stew
The dish for cold days: slow-cooked lamb served in a casserole and finished with sweet potato chips. Tender, warming and truly southern.
Fuegian lamb empanadas
The Patagonian take on the Argentine empanada: two Fuegian lamb empanadas. Order them as a starter or, together with the hand-cut beef criollas, make a round of empanadas to share.
What to drink
Lamb goes very well with fuller-bodied Ushuaia craft beers such as Beagle Red Ale or Drake Red IPA. If you prefer wine, ask for our wine list.
Want more southern flavours?
Add the Fuegian trout with carrot emulsion and citrus gremolata, or the whole fresh king crab.

Küar 1900, San Martín 471, opposite Government House, open every day from 12 pm to midnight.
