Urko

Quito, Ecuador

Centred around the indigenous concept of tributes to nature and the astral cycles, Urko structures its menu around the four seasons – harvest, fertility, sowing and flowering – drawing ingredients from the Andes, the coast, the rainforest and the Galápagos as each unfolds. Dishes might include Andean grains, guinea pig belly, clams with cacao and smoked Amazonian cachama fish, every one of them a reflection of extraordinary thought and craft. The menu pays homage to the full diversity of the Andes, with beautifully plated morsels that take their inspiration from the rhythms of the agricultural calendar, rendered with real finesse and care. With covers capped at just 25 per night, service is painstaking yet intimate – a fitting backdrop for food this considered.
