An amazing experience from start to finish. We made reservations by e-mail to secure our appointment. There are only two settings per night, 8 max per seating.
We arrived a few minutes early for the first seating (5:30pm) and ordered some drinks at Jaleo, while waiting for the other guests to arrive. The drinks came and we were treated to the wonderful aroma and sight of the kitchen staff slowly roasting a suckling pig with much care. The restaurant was still stirring and there were not that many diners yet.
We were finally whisked away to e, trekking through Jaleo, and made it to the restaurant within a restaurant, briefly introduced and exchanged greetings with our other fellow six diners, and the evening of culinary delight began.
Words are inadequate to describe the dining experience. An attempt to provide course by course details and notes will overshadow the creativeness, whimsicalness, gastronomical feats, and amazing tasting food that were served course after course. Imagine the excellence of fine dining, and then some; but without the rigidity, and the ability to explore, be amused, and surprised delightfully. Thee were many things I could highlight, but I'll leave one memorable impression - it was pure fun to enjoy the wine with the porron. So much could go amiss when trying to imbibe wine that way, but it was core to the dining experience - experience food with fun and reap the rewards of trying innovative techniques.
