FIERRO: ten years and a vegetable perspective
For FIERRO, the inclusion in Radilicious 2 coincides with a key moment: the restaurant’s tenth anniversary. In recent years, Carito Lourenço and Germán Carrizo have developed a vegetable line that reflects their commitment to sustainability, technique and culinary sensibility, as well as their own vegetable garden in Meliana, as an R&D&I laboratory from which many of their ideas are born.
In its current proposal, the vegetarian menus and alcohol-free pairings -made from vegetable products- are a sign of the future that the kitchen is already serving at FIERRO. That is why they were awarded with the DISCOVERY AWARDS 20024 by the We’re Smart Green Guide.
