Bazan is very well known and respected having been voted Latin Americas Best Female Chef in 2019 by the Worlds 50 Best.
The food is intended to showcase dishes from coast to the mountains and the menu may well include some of the dishes that proved most popular at the Carousel residency last year such as lamb corn cake alongside grilled sea bar with quinoa, avocado, pebre and chilli.
