We committed our greatest culinary mischiefs in childhood.
Taking childhood as the field of research for creation, designing the dinner from scratch with the art collective Casa Antillón.
We were interested in innocence as a vehicle for enhancing automatic thoughts and the destruction of rules as a creative opportunity to construct a deconstructed, distorted, and playful dinner.
Re-creation is the act of stopping and imagining without limits. Recess is a space and time that we have all experienced. It is a naive rehearsal to unlearn and detach from the established.
The Installation
The space turned into a "playground," altering scale and perspective to recreate a dinner through a childlike lens. Elements like bent cutlery, sandwiches, and painted tables evoked nostalgia and play.
Interaction is encouraged by creating a shared and carefree experience that invites guests to rediscover the joy of eating spontaneously.
The Menu
As children, every recess was an endless source of creativity, far from household rules that we boldly broke—dipping fries in soda and ignoring the scoldings that followed our game of bending forks.
The menu invites you to relive those playful transgressions, driven by the relentless curiosity of a fresh gaze that discovers its surroundings with astonishing freedom.
"These blue days and this sun of childhood" were the last verses of Antonio Machado. In them, he recalled the childhood garden, a place of the soul to which we turn seeking the warmth wrapped in the affectionate embrace of the past.
