Chapulín

Chapulín is a Mexican restaurant that pays tribute to the culinary heritage of the country through a journey inspired by the fields and seas of Mexico. It showcases a connection with the land and water with a cold seafood bar, a volcanic stone and clay comal, and the aroma of embers, reflecting the use of traditional tools and techniques. The menu encompasses many regions of Mexico, combining pre-Hispanic and traditional influences with contemporary methods such as smoking, roasting, and charcoal grilling. The ingredients are carefully selected from cooperatives of fishermen and farmers to ensure freshness and authenticity, with corn being a central element alongside other staples like cilantro, onion, and serrano chili. Located in Polanco within the Presidente InterContinental Hotel, Chapulín offers a sophisticated yet inviting atmosphere with private rooms and a terrace that blend elegance with Mexican cultural elements. The cuisine features innovative seafood inspired by the coastal seafood markets of the Pacific, countryside dishes, and preparations centered around grilling. The culinary direction in Mexico City is overseen by José Luis Sánchez Ronquillo, whose training includes prestigious kitchens in Mexico, Spain, and Japan. The restaurant also presents a signature mixology to complement its fresh and grilled menu.
