Chef Andoni Luis Aduriz
The proposal from renowned chef Andoni Luis Aduriz invites us to embark on a culinary journey inspired by the historic Manila Route, telling a story of exchange and mestizaje over more than 250 years. In Xal, each dish is an invitation to discover the richness of the culinary heritage of Mexico, the Philippines, and the Basque Country, celebrating the meeting of cultures and the art of cooking.
