Gastrosinapsis
A space for research, development and innovation "R&D&I" has been created, with the multidisciplinary research team Gastrosinapsis, co-founded by Diego Schattenhofer, that fuses science and gastronomy to take local products to their maximum potential, giving the recognition they deserve to both their culture and origin. This work is reflected in the adjacent R&D&I laboratory, where all elements and variables of a menu are analyzed and fused to maximize their value.
The primary objective of this center is to promote research in the coming years to continue creating disruptive projects in gastronomy and hospitality, emphasizing the importance of the primary sector.
