BARRAMUNDI + TUBERS

Arizona Barramundi / Rondon Sauce / Tubers

Barramundi as protein baseline, set against yuca rondon (fat + allium + coconut), with tubers staged across forms (fried, softened, structured). System built on starch, heat, and saturation.

Sourdough tamarind kvass from grain - fermentation as acid + lift

RONDON STUDY NØTES: Originating from Afro-Caribbean communities along Caribbean coasts of Costa Rica as resource-driven stew. Name derives from “run down,” referencing practice of cooking ingredients down together into unified broth. Historically, the dish functioned as an expression of full utilization - adapting to available catch, tropical agriculture, + preservation methods.

BEEF + YUCA

30-Day Dry-Aged New York Strip / Charcoal Yuca / LIZANØ

LIZANØ STUDY NØTES: ongoing study of the foundational Costa Rican sauce - reverse engineered through the lens of in-house production. Root vegetable trim (turnip, carrot, daikon + other aromatics) undergoes a 3% salt lacto-fermentation over five days.

Resulting liquid is layered with spices + dehydrated vegetable solids are reincorporated to deepen structure and flavor concentration. Finished with vinegar for calibrated acidity + lightly thickened with cornstarch to achieve viscosity.

Yuca sourced within local Colorado network - connecting Costa Rican growers to our kitchen through a tighter, more intentional supply chain.

Tonight marks our last service with Chef Michael! It’s been an incredible run; from the struggles coming out of the pandemic, to outfitting a new chapter of our space, the growth Brutø has experienced is difficult to put into words - though a James Beard nomination and two Michelin accolades might speak for themselves!

We are so proud of Chef Michael’s work in this kitchen, as a creative, a story-teller, and a leader. From all the team at Id Est and Bruto, we raise a glass to you, Chef, and wish you all the best in your adventures ahead. Thank you.
