To cook and to draw — the same language.

Daniel Nates

Manifesto

  1. 01

    Producto

    Ingredient first, technique second. What the field or the sea allows is what gets cooked.

  2. 02

    Huerto

    At Olivea, the menu changes with the garden's season. The kitchen listens to the field first.

  3. 03

    Calle

    At Fritanguita, the poblano fritanga in its most contemporary form. Hand-made, fast fire.

  4. 04

    Imagen

    To draw and to cook share a language: composition, contrast, intent. The cook also makes images.

Art

Studio.

What the hand makes when it isn't cooking. Drawing, painting, marks on paper.

The table is the last painting.
