DINNER · MONDAY 9
7:00 PM · Restaurante Catedral
This dinner has been curated to present Oaxacan cuisine as a cultural system shaped by territory,
seasonality, and inherited knowledge. Centered on chichilo mole, one of Oaxaca’s most profound
and lesser-known moles, the menu reflects a tradition of cooking rooted in patience, memory, and
the transformative use of native ingredients. Each course invites an understanding of food as both
cultural expression and embodied history.
