Restaurante Silvestre
table.skift.com: Santiago Fernández Benedetto, chef and owner of Restaurante Silvestre, who says that strategies like changing the menu constantly and playing with the seasons have been key for his team to continue working with local suppliers.
Restaurante Silvestre opened in August 2017 with a sophisticated tasting menu that combines storytelling and rich flavors. In a recent iteration of the tasting menu, each plate represented one of Costa Rica’s seven provinces with ingredients from that region.

Fernández has an interesting perspective on why Costa Rica, a country with such inherent abundance, has not emerged as a leader in the local culinary movement.
“We are blessed every year with everything we need without having to worry about strong seasons, hard weather, hurricanes, or wars that make for a culture to have a strong culinary background. Hardness is the key for culinary evolution…together with history, culture and many other factors,” he says.
