The cuisine at Navarra is all about simplicity; learning how to bring out the best in fresh, local, seasonal ingredients. At the same time, a lot of slow-cooking techniques have taken over the region. Slow braising, slow simmering and 'a la plancha' a searing technique that involves searing in hot cast iron sufaces to allow ingredients to richly caramelize on the outside and allow flavours to seal on the inside.
Chef Rodriguez will also use a lot of roasting techniques and slow poaching at Navarra
He will use the freshest local produce and support our local farmers and change the menu with the changing seasons. He will incorporate Spanish ingredients in his cuisine such as Serrano Ham, Iberico Ham, Chorizo sausage, dried Spanish olives & great olive oils from Spain and Amedei chocolate from Tuscany. |
Critically acclaimed Chef Rene Rodriquez will be showcasing foods of the northern Spain and Basque region. These areas host world famous Michelin Star restaurants such as Arzak and Mugaritz, who have influenced and inspired Rene’s love of Spanish cuisine. Navarra is one of these regions famous for their amazing wines and delectable cuisine.
True Northern Spanish cuisine can also be described as the “Mountain and Sea”. Sheep and lamb roam the mountains, while an abundance of fish and seafood fill the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
Chef Rene’s menu will include local meats such as lamb, beef and milk fed piglet. Fresh fish and seafood will grace his unique dishes along with imported Spanish ingredients such as Serrano ham, Jabugo ham, chorizo sausage, dried Spanish olives, black truffles, piquillo peppers and Spanish cheeses.
In recent trips to Spain Rene has learned and taught his team that real cuisine is a combination of great product and careful handling which can result in flavour and texture that become transcendental and revealing. Tasting Chef Rene’s food will truly give you an idea about how passionate this man is about his love of food.
We look forward to seeing you all for an intimate and unique dining experience like no other in the city.
Enjoy. |
