Conceptually, it is an outdoor dining experience.
The menu is closed, although an interview is usually carried out before dinner to find out possible tolerances and food preferences of the attendees. For example: octopus from Fuerteventura, doro wat from Ethiopia, crunchy cassava crumbs and Canarian banana sauce. African fusion cuisine under the infinite stars.
