Puerto Rico is an island full of fantastic food and gorgeous places. Each corner has its character and uniqueness and presents specialized locally produced ingredients. On the Road Dinner Series is our proposal to take food lovers to these amazing corners and have a unique dining experience carefully curated by El Pretexto’s team.
PUERTO RICAN, CAYEY-BORN, Michelin-star winner Chef Jonathan Meléndez from Casa Mono, NEW YORK, joins us to work WITH local ingredients. Jonathan loves to create incredible sauces, play with flavorful vegetables and fruits, and has over 20 years of experience in local and international kitchens.
EL PRETEXTO’S HOUSE guest, CHEF LUIS CABRERO, joins JONATHAN TO co-create AN AMAZING DINNER EXPERIENCE. Luis loves to cook using smoked and traditional techniques, honoring family recipes and local ingredients. LUIS HAS OVER 20 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE food INDUSTRY, including over 11 years at la hacienda.
