Aarde

Earth, music, spices, exoticism …

A journey to the roots of the African continent. A tribute to the earth and all the riches it offers us.

The land whispers stories with an intense voice but not everyone dares to hear or inquire into its secret language. In Aarde they talk to her and they invite us to do so by entering the landscapes of the African continent, its fauna, flora and endless cultures. Its infinite aromas and colors that they coexist in harmony in spaces full of music where they can play with the most primal instincts.

From its open kitchen come tribal ceramic plates and platters full of cheerful flavors and textures. Chingulugulu lasagna, bock tartare with wild blueberry or aloe vera ceviche are just some of the most innovative and unknown examples that you can find in Aarde. A journey through each dish in search of the authentic.

In Aarde you will feel that you are entering an unknown, risky world, but you will quickly appreciate that it is the return to the roots, the exaltation of purity and the maximum respect for our land.

It all started on a journey. The destination: Africa. The path: the roots.
