Zazu

Wood, glass, sleek design: a simple but welcoming décor, in tune with the cheerful atmosphere of this restaurant, which concentrates first and foremost on the food on the plate and has built up a clientele of regular customers. Wilson Alpala, Ecuadorian Chef who joined Zazu after spending the first years of his career in France, serves contemporary cuisine with Latin American influences, mainly based on local ingredients. He works very closely with farmers, grows vegetables in the restaurant's greenhouses and selected his own team of reliable fishermen on the coast. The cellar, with its spectacular 25-foot high ceiling, is one of the finest in Ecuador.
