Under this intriguing name, which is a celebration of an almost forgotten dish from Extremadura, this simple restaurant attempts to revive traditional regional flavours from a modern perspective. The young duo at the helm, Josemi Martínez and Mercedes Rincón, are embarking on their own personal project here after working in some of the finest establishments, some even outside Spain. Both chefs, who throughout their careers have always been ambassadors for the products of their home region, uphold traditional Extremaduran recipes using modern techniques and the best local seasonal produce, brin

Trujillo, commonly known as the town of the conquistadors, reveals a new side to itself if you visit this stone mansion, located in the heart of the old town.

Guti Moreno, the young local chef, presents two tasting menus with a modern twist ('Tupío' and 'Gran Tupío'), adding dashes of creativity while remaining respectful to the flavours of traditional recipes.
