PROYECTO CARIBE FOOD EXPERIENCES
Proyecto Caribe, the passionate undertaking by two of Latin America's most innovative and exceptionally talented chefs, Jaime Rodriguez and Sebastián Pinzón, started as visually stunning pop-up communal dining experience. There highly sought after dinners were an opportunity for the chefs to showcase the results of their important and expansive investigation into Colombian ingredients and food traditions that have been overlooked for too long and are in danger of being lost forever. The nights were one of those truly special experiences where you feel you are witnessing future chef's table genius in the making. Not having a permanent space did not stop the exciting foodie duo from being named a New Worlder's Best New Restaurant of 2017
Now Proyecto Caribe is a fully fledged and frickin amazing bricks'n'mortar restaurant (Celele) and you should all totally make a reservation whilst in Cartagena. The team also offer a full complement of gourmet food experiences that include cooking classes, chef visits to the Mercado Bazurto, degustations and private dinners. These experiences are available to a few select agencies and partners (like Cartagena Connections) so to make a reservation or enquire further, please send an email to info@cartagenaconnections.com
