The experience includes all drinks (various Mexican wines, drinks and liqueurs) and a five-step menu, which starts with starters such as escargot and ceviche.
The dinner itself includes a starter, main course and two desserts. The menu is sent to customers in advance, created according to their tastes. Among the options served on the day of our visit were: gaspacho mango with crab legs, sea bass fillet and epazote risotto (erva-de-santa-maria), a delicious beef rib cooked for 24 hours with corn crust and spices, strawberry with tequila syrup (with meringue and chili caramel), in addition to the second dessert: brownie of chocolate.
