oxtail envoltini and hexagon of beef
Explanation:
Ah, found you - must have been going blind yesterday evening!

http://www.thecaesar.co.uk/page.php?id=838 has envoltini on its menu (albeit Spanish chef) and I've seen the term used in a number of other menus. Seems to be anything from a spring roll kind of object to anything stuffed/rolled up together - as the name suggests.

Not surprised to find no trace of this geometric meat.... so have just tried to express it elegantly. But I am beset by doubts. Is this one dish or two. If it's only one, heaven help us, then *oxtail and hexagon of beef envoltini*.

Or maybe hexagon is a new-fangled cut, not the way the meat is present on the plate....

Ox Tail Rolls and ??beef hexagons??


Explanation:
Fairly sure of the ox tail rolls, but couldn't begin to say what un hexágono de ternera is, besides a funky house recipe...
