At Araya, Chefs Francisco Araya and Fernanda Guerrero share their rich heritage and culinary journeys through Chile, the South Pacific, and Japan. Each dish reflects their passion and commitment to showcasing seasonal ingredients and cultural provenance, blending South American and Japanese flavors with exceptional culinary techniques. The cuisine crafted by Chefs Francisco and Fernanda is built upon the highest-quality ingredients sourced from their homeland of Chile and beyond. Every dish embodies their philosophy of celebrating life\u2019s joys, honoring fine produce, and maintaining a rigorous focus on technique and finesse. Discover the Talents of Chef Francisco Araya and Chef Fernanda Guerrero Chef Francisco, 40, began his culinary career at Alma in Santiago, before advancing to Andoni Luis Aduriz\u2019s renowned Mugaritz in Spain. He has held significant roles, including Head Chef and Creative Director at Borago in Santiago, and he later returned to Spain to join the legendary elBulli in 2008. In 2012, he opened 81 Restaurant in Tokyo, a space dedicated to seasonal Japanese ingredients infused with South American flair. Remarkably, this intimate eight-seat restaurant earned its first Michelin star in 2013 when Chef Francisco was only 29. Chef Fernanda Guerrero, 36, complements Francisco\u2019s culinary vision as the Pastry Chef. A talented pastry artist, she excels in creating exquisite breads and pastries with a unique sense of place. Her impressive background includes working at celebrated establishments like Alegre, awarded Best Restaurant in Chile (2013-2014), and NAPA Wine Bar &amp; Kitchen, recognized as one of Shanghai\u2019s top restaurants by Tatler in 2017. Fernanda\u2019s passion for cooking began in her family\u2019s restaurant in Chile, where she learned the craft from her parents, who ran the establishment for 32 years. Exploring Araya\u2019s Stunning Interior Decor As you enter Araya through its distinctive copper-accented door, you are welcomed by a stunning 12-seat rose quartz counter that serves as the centerpiece of the main dining area. Designed by Australian interior designer Emma Maxwell, the restaurant&#8217;s decor draws inspiration from natural materials found in Chile, such as Alamo timber, with ombre walls that evoke the sunrises and sunsets of its diverse landscapes. Guests are invited to dine at the rose quartz counter, providing a unique opportunity to watch the chefs in action. This intimate setting fosters a personal connection with the culinary team, allowing diners to engage and learn about the exotic ingredients and creative inspirations behind Araya\u2019s remarkable dishes. Adjacent to the main dining space is an exquisite private dining room, featuring a stunning mural of the Andes that entices those outside to take a glimpse. A solid quartzite stone table anchors this elegant area, while a delicate porcelain light fixture hovers above like soft, drifting clouds. Rich blue velvet curtains, framed by contemporary rope swags, beautifully complement a rustic terracotta wool rug crafted using natural dyes. The Degustation Menu At Araya, guests can embark on a culinary journey with three distinct dining options: the eight-course degustation menu highlighting the ocean\u2019s bounty, known as Costa (S$368++); the eight-course land-focused degustation menu, Andes; and on weekends, the Chilean lunch menu, Araya-style ($298++), alongside a vegetarian menu ($298++) that showcases the region\u2019s diverse plant offerings. Costa ($368++) Suggested Aperitif: Domaine De La Borderie Champagne Brut &#8220;Les 3 Contrees&#8221; The Domaine De La Borderie Champagne Brut &#8220;Les 3 Contrees&#8221; is a stunning representation of elegance and complexity in a bottle. From the moment you pour it, the champagne captivates with its delicate floral nose, featuring enchanting aromas of acacia and hawthorn intertwined with subtle spicy notes and hints of dried fruit, particularly currants. On the palate, this champagne is beautifully tangy and ample, offering a delightful burst of fruity flavors. The initial acidity gives way to a full-bodied experience, gradually revealing a harmonious balance of taut, vibrant aromas. The persistence of flavors is impressive, making each sip a true delight. This champagne shines as a fine aperitif. It also pairs wonderfully with the ceviche below. Snacks Ama Ebi Tomato meringue The Ama Ebi, known for its sweet and delicate flavor, paired beautifully with the refreshing tomato meringue.

Each bite was a perfect harmony of textures, from the tender, succulent shrimp to the crisp and creamy meringue. It\u2019s a dish that truly highlights the creativity and artistry of the chef. Corn Flan Chocolitos The flan was creamy, with a subtle sweetness that beautifully highlighted the corn&#8217;s natural flavors. The texture was stimulating, making each bite a pleasure. Chicha De Pira Fermented pineapple nectar This fermented pineapple nectar is both refreshing and complex, making it a unique beverage choice.

The texture is pleasantly smooth, and the drink has a light effervescence that makes it incredibly refreshing, especially on a warm day. It\u2019s a perfect accompaniment to a meal or a delightful standalone treat. I also appreciate the cultural significance of Chicha De Pira; it\u2019s a traditional beverage that reflects the rich culinary heritage of the chefs.. La Panera (Bread Basket) Marraqueta Classic pan Chileno The Marraqueta is a classic Chilean bread, and it did not disappoint! This bread is a staple in Chilean households, and for good reason.

Its mild flavor paired beautifully with the bold notes of the Aceite de Dend\u00ea, which added a wonderful depth and a beautiful golden hue to the dish.
