This dinner is an invitation to let go of certainty.

Inspired by surrealism, the experience plays with perception, texture, and expectation, where flavours shift roles, forms deceive the eye, and nothing is quite what it seems at first glance. A sip may feel like a dish, a plate may echo a drink, and the line between liquid and solid slowly dissolves throughout the evening.

Rather than following a classical culinary structure, the dinner unfolds like a story. Each pairing is designed as a moment of dialogue: between contrast and balance, between surprise and comfort, between craftsmanship and imagination. The goal is not to impress through excess, but to create a subtle sense of disorientation , the kind that sparks curiosity, conversation, and genuine presence at the table.

Beyond the flavours themselves, this evening celebrates the art behind self-expression in gastronomy. The intention, the technique, and the creative choices that turn food and drink into a language. A reminder that tasting is not only about consumption, but about attention.

This is a dinner for those who enjoy being gently challenged, who appreciate details, and who are open to experiences that do not ask to be understood immediately ... only felt.
