Mercado 24

16th – 20th July

“No hay caviar, pero hay maíz”.

Riding high at No. 49 in Latin America’s ‘50Best’, cult chef Pablo Díaz has put Guatemala City on the culinary map with his ever popular, produce-driven smash hit, Mercado 24. 

Just a few hundred yards from La Terminal (one of the city’s 23 bustling markets), the vibrant indoor-outdoor-dining experience showcases Pablo’s unique way with the seasonal bounty of his cherished homeland. Deceptively simple dishes like ‘Langoustine Tostada, Lemon Zest, Red Onion, Pink Apple Umeboshi’; and ‘Roasted Squash, Squash Seed Praline, Mizuna’ are not only testament to the close relationships that Pablo has forged with growers throughout Guatemala, but also his incredible ability to extract every last bit of flavour from his chosen ingredients. 

Ring any bells? The tostada king and Carousel are no strangers. Pablo {PAIRED} up with Call Super for our multi-sensory Chef x DJ dining experience last April, and, in just a few weeks, he’ll be lighting up the lakeside WildKitchen at Guy Ritchie’s Wiltshire estate. With a world renowned restaurant and a dab hand for a pop-up, this one is going to be huge.
