Dinner in Andalusia with Michelin-Starred Chef Nacho

Cook and eat in a stranger's home instead of a restaurant kitchen

A three-hour dinner experience in a private home in Malaga province, Andalusia, where a chef trained in Michelin-starred kitchens cooks an Andalusian menu to order while you watch and eat, with local wines included. The hosts, Marina and Nacho, share the property's history and regional culture. Public transport reaches the location, and the operator accommodates food restrictions when you mention them in advance.

The experience

You arrive at a home in the mountains of Malaga province for an evening that unfolds around the kitchen and the table instead of a dining room service. Your hosts Marina and Nacho welcome you into their space, and Nacho (who has worked in several Michelin-starred restaurants across Spain) begins cooking the night's menu in front of you. The meal opens with watermelon gazpacho and chorizo flambéed with brandy, moves through a risotto of wild mushrooms and peas, and closes with a chocolate coulant and macadamia nut ice cream. Local wines and beverages flow throughout.

The three hours sit between watching a chef work and sitting down to eat what he makes. You are not in a class learning technique, and you are not in a restaurant where the kitchen is hidden: you are in the room where the cooking happens, close enough to see how the dishes come together. Between courses, Marina and Nacho talk about the region: its food, its history, the landscape visible from the windows. The ambiance is the home itself, not a designed setting.

Public transport reaches the location, so you do not need a car to get there. If you have food allergies or follow a special diet, tell the operator when you book and Nacho will adjust the menu. The experience runs three hours from arrival to the end of dinner.
