Kitchen

Jose Alvarez spoke out about the gastronomic proposal. He said that the most important thing was the "connection that is established during show between the chef, the artists, and the diners with a menu consisting of 6 to 7 dishes." This year, there will be proposals that include "spicy or strong things," which will go well with the night's desserts.

"Los Que" is the company's talent competition inspired from the seven deadly sins. Ibanez stated that it would be "a proposal full of music, magic, and fun", but he also said that the attendees will be welcomed by a satyr with flame and will need to overcome the fire in order to enter the show.

Ibanez, on the other hand, pointed out that Edible Theater was one of the Festival's most unique proposals. It is a bet with local stamp that proves that "we can make culinary, cultural, and artistic proposals at high elevations of the great capitals."
