Proprietor Elena Reygadas studied in New York and London earlier than returning dwelling to open Rosetta in 2010; since then, she’s been named Latin America’s Finest Feminine Chef (in 2014), earned a spot on Latin America’s 50 Finest Eating places checklist, and—the final word accolade—Alice Waters blurbed her new cookbook.

“The restaurant is in a ravishing outdated colonial constructing,” Victoria says, “and the interiors are enchanting. You actually really feel the female contact; the partitions are coated in floral frescoes and there are vegetation in all places, draped from the ceiling or tucked in corners. It’s all about foliage. The delicacies is an attention-grabbing fusion of Italian and Mexican and the design is a mixture of eclectic components. All of it works someway.”
