Disfutar

After eating at about 25 restaurants on the top 100 best restaurants in the world, it’s always a pleasant surprise to experience something new. At Disfutar it was experiencing scents to complement the dish while dinning. The waiter poured smokey whiskey in my hands. I rubbed them together. While eating “Tarta al whiskey”, I could experience the smokey aroma. Similarly a gazpacho sandwich was served but instead of including vinegar as an ingredient, it was companied super strength in a glass as a garnishes to sniff. Disfutar was truly utilizing 5 of the 5 senses: taste, sight, scent, feel (texture, temperature, etc.), and hearing (e.g. detailed explanation of the dishes and wine pairing). 

My favorite dishes and pairings:

1. Savory walnut candy with mango, tonka beans, and whisky 
2. Asparagus with elderflower and macadamia 
3. Multispherical pesto with pistachios and eel
4. Hoisin cucumber w/ ginger and basil
