experiment #57 - Cobaya del Cielo with Chef Juan Manuel Barrientos

Another experiment concluded! This time around, it was with Chef Juan Manuel Barrientos, the chef of El Cielo - a restaurant with locations in Bogotá (listed in the S. Pellegrino "Latin America's 50 Best Restaurants" list if you follow such things), Medellín, and now, Miami, just off Brickell Avenue backing on to the Miami River. You can see all the pictures in this Cobaya del Cielo flickr set, and stay tuned for recaps here's are recaps from The Chowfather and Food For Thought.

It's more poetic than detailed, but here's the menu he served Sunday night:

Passion Fruit Mistela

Follow the Stars

Chocotherapy

Amazon's Tree of Life

Roasted Corn Soup

Fishing in Corn Water

Chicken and Beer

The Smoking Cow

Bocadito

Spicy Guava

Rose Petal

Thank you to Chef Barrientos and all of his team at El Cielo, and, as always, to the guinea pigs whose interest and support make these kinds of events possible.
