Secret Dinners
A gastronomic experience completely different from what you are used to. Forget about: going to a restaurant, listening to recommendations and eating your dishes. In secret dinners everything is the other way around. Candelilla 16 is a restaurant that calls itself the “anti-restaurant” because before they bring you your first dish you will hear a bell that indicates that you should cover your eyes with a mask. Only when you see absolutely nothing is when your first dish touches the table and you eat it without having any idea what is in front of you. A guide narrates the experience so that you do not feel so lost and without your sight, your smell, touch and taste sharpen so that you are much more aware of the flavors and textures that you are eating. When you finish the dish and listen to a bell again you already have permission to see the menu and discover if your senses led you correctly. The whole session is dedicated to exalting Mexican food, so they focus on native ingredients and recipes. This experience is for 20 lucky people and is done on weekends only, if you want to go, book promptly.
