The Chingona of Rumbo Aravaca
The architects of such a great project are the prolific Larrumba group . In the capital they already have numerous restaurants such as Pipa & Co., Peyote San, Habanera or La Sabina, of which we talked very recently . Larrumba is not afraid of anything, he ventures with all possible types of cuisine and always hits the spot. Rumbo Aravaca also presents itself as an agreement between the group Larrumba, Lalala and Celicioso.
La Mamona, Masako, Celicioso, Okavango, La Sabina, La Chingona and Indian Bengal . Seven different spaces with letters from different parts of the world where light, good decoration and glass windows reign. Let's go by parts:
MASAKO
Masako is the proposal coming directly from the country of the rising sun. under the baton of Hugo Munoz , who already signed with the group at the opening of Peyote San and who has worked in the kitchens of Kabuki and Kabutokaji , here you will find simple and well executed recipes . From nigiris with a twist, tartares, usuzukuris and tempura to more elaborate dishes such as Hong Kong pork belly with hoisin sauce, pak choi and leek or grilled beef entrails with robata-style kimchi-churri.
You'll have a hard time telling you among Masako's delights
THE MAMONA
As we said, the group Lalala has joined forces with Larrumba in the opening of La Mamona . Here the proposal is structured as a super brewery with traditional recipes: scallops, steak tartar skewers, baby squid... The space will conquer you because around a large central bar, there are high and low tables, in addition to having a terrace space . Perfect to enjoy a few beers at noon (on the weekend, of course) or a few drinks at night.

CELICIOUS
Every sweet lover already knows Celicioso's gluten-free pleasure venues . The creation of Santi Godfrid, who was diagnosed with celiac disease at the age of 23, has expanded his frontiers and is now found at the Puente Romano hotel in Marbella and the Nobu Ibiza Bay. With this opening in Rumbo Aravaca, it now has five locations. The plan? Fill up on healthy sweets, plan the weekend brunch or have a nutritious bowl and brag about it on your Instagram.

OKAVANGO
Back in Larrumba, we talk about the next one on the list, Okavango. Although it is said that he is African, the truth is that his menu, although with references to the dishes of the continent, is very international. you can ask Chickpea and tabbouleh hummus with pomegranate, grilled matured beef kafta , passing through the Italian piadina durum or the stracciatela and mortadella piadina. Of course, the decoration with exotic objects accompanies the experience much more.
THE SABINE
First it was in Moraleja, and now, Aravaca's turn has come. The rice restaurant everyone is talking about opens its second location in this multi-space . We told you about it recently, but going to La Sabina is like enjoying the Mediterranean in the heart of Madrid: try its Menorcan appetizers such as grilled squid stuffed with sobrassada, its succulent rice dishes such as Valencian paella, senyoret rice or cigala and artichokes. Those who have tried them say they are the best in Madrid...
Do you know what's new from Larrumba?
THE CHINGONA
He has been the last to arrive, but he has done it in a big way. Conceived as a canteen, there you can breathe Mexican essence on all four sides. They call themselves a warrior state where they serve tacos, ceviches, and seafood. The proposal treasures recipes such as grilled oysters, prawn toast with pesto , the octopus 'in love' , a good selection of tacos and fish. All this accompanied by a cocktail menu created ad hoc by Carlos Moreno.
INDIAN BENGAL
They haven't opened yet, but Indian Bengala will be a restaurant where Indian cuisine and country décor will go hand in hand.
Which one are you betting on?
