RavioXO

In the words of chef Dabiz Muñoz, RavioXO is “the luxury of eating time”, a perfect metaphor to express his informal, handcrafted cuisine, which is fully centred on the world of pasta, with all the dough, fillings and sauces made individually. In this extensive restaurant, located next to El Corte Inglés’ gourmet dining space on the Paseo de la Castellana, the stylish decor is inspired by Lázaro Rosa-Violán, providing the backdrop for chef Balo Ortiz, who follows the culinary guidelines set out by award-winning Madrid chef Dabiz Muñoz in every dish. The cuisine here, shared between the à la carte and a tasting menu, reflects fusion cuisine that covers almost all of Asia as a result of the chef’s travels and features sauces and exotic ingredients alike (yozu kosho, Korean tempura, spider crab from Singapore, umeboshi, Gochujang pasta etc) alongside those from closer to home. Standout dishes, which are designed for sharing, include dumplings, eggs with morcilla, and the legendary Hong Kong Madriz “cocido”.
