GastroCreativa
Multisensory experiences, blending theory and practical exercises, aimed at understanding and bridging two (not so) different worlds: gastronomy and creativity.
Nourishing creativity, but how? By feeling, inspiring, investigating, experimenting, discussing, experiencing, discovering, imagining... with the goal of: letting go, experiencing, inventing, innovating, creating.
Sensory Immersions
Training the senses for creation, exploring immersive experiences that help us innovate. Stimulating all the senses to create dishes and proposals that, in turn, stimulate all the senses.
Authorship Laboratory
How is a dish created? What resources does a chef rely on to create it? What bank/archive/church does he turn to in order to create it? We believe he must turn to the temple of his imagination, and in this course, we provide the keys to open some of its doors.

The dining room as theater and choreography of the gastronomic experience.
