barrafina invita 11: kabo

Barrafina Invita, one of our most anticipated London food events, will be hosting Spanish Michelin-star-chef Aarón Ortiz at Barrafina Borough Yards on Wednesday 25th March.

Kabo, led by Navarran duo Aarón Ortiz and Head of Service, Jaione Aizpurua, is a celebration of hyper-local agriculture. Nestled in the fertile plain of the Arga River in northern Spain, the restaurant is built on a fierce commitment to small local producers and a love of the kitchen garden. Ortiz created Kabo to build a space where Navarran cuisine transforms and evolves without ever losing its roots. This dedication to seasonal produce earned the restaurant its first Michelin Star and a Sol Repsol within its first year of opening.

The six-course tasting menu will comprise dishes focused on a selection of Navarran provinces and their produce.
