Its philosophy is based on discipline, technical knowledge and understanding gastronomy as a multidisciplinary activity.<\/p>\n<p>It works within the headquarters, but it is an independent entity. All the staff that have participated in the restaurant have passed through the \"<a href=\"https:\/\/institutoculinariocaracas.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instituto Culinario de Caracas<\/a>\" anytime.<\/p>\n<p>It is located in a house in the <strong>Chuao<\/strong> neighborhood. It is a very discreet place. I was lucky that a person from Caracas brought me there; otherwise I probably wouldn't have known it. Thanks to the weather there, I was able to enjoy the food in the garden. It is a simple and elongated space. The floor is tiled and the walls painted maroon and white. A couple of big trees is the only thing in nature. Functional site without too many pretensions. Of course... the tables are very well set.<\/p>\n<p>It is open from Thursday to Saturday from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. with previous reservations always. On Sundays they offer brunch from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., also with prior reservation.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div><strong>Type<\/strong>: contemporary Venezuelan cuisine. Chef <strong>H\u00e9ctor Romero<\/strong> is very interested in the field of restoration (\"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/comedoricc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">El Comedor<\/a>\"), in chocolate (\"<a href=\"http:\/\/kakaovenezuela.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kakao Bombones Venezolanos<\/a>\") and in research; without forgetting that of teaching (he is the founder of the \"<a href=\"https:\/\/institutoculinariocaracas.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instituto Culinario de Caracas<\/a>\"). He is a very active person.<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>\"Abrebocas\"\n<ul>\n<li>Sweet anise and guayan\u00e9s cheese arepas - I was surprised to start the night with such a consistent dish. The arepas are small. They are fried and stuffed with cheese. The point of anise gives it a fantastic touch.<\/li>\n<li>Creole grill on horseback with heart of palm and avocado gazpacho - Ball of spicy and very tasty meat. The heart of palm and avocado gazpacho refreshes the dish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Starter\n<ul>\n<li>Shrimp cocktail with avocado balls and smoked tomato mayonnaise- It is one of the star dishes, without a doubt. Aesthetically it is almost perfect. It has impeccable symmetry and colors. The prawns and avocado are presented in the format of little balls. The smoked tomato foam and mayonnaise are the perfect complements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>First Dish\n<ul>\n<li>Chicken soup, \"jojoto\" and mint - Delicious way to present a soup. The chicken and the different vegetables in different formats and different textures make the dish unique.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Second Dish\n<ul>\n<li>\"Bollito\" pel\u00f3n de carupanera black pudding - Contrast of tastes that I loved.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Main Dish\n<ul>\n<li>Beef ossobuco with pressed banana, \"papel\u00f3n\" and cheese of the year - Another of the star dishes. The ossobuco is well cooked. It melts in the mouth. Delicious. Pressed banana is amazing. I would have eaten 4 more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Deserts\n<ul>\n<li>Guayava sorbet with \"cream cheese\" and Porto - Refreshing dessert.<\/li>\n<li>\"Negro en camisa y corbata\" - Cocoa from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kmatest.com\/en\/resultat\/?wpv-category=&wpv-wpcf-pais=Venezuela&wpv-wpcf-provincia-estat=&wpv-wpcf-poblacio-zona=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Venezuela<\/a> is known worldwide and I assure you that this dish corroborates the fame it has earned.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After the antirestaurant \"<strong>La Isabela<\/strong>\", for me, \"<strong>El Comedor<\/strong>\" is one of the best in <strong>Caracas<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is the restaurant of the \"Instituto Culinario de Caracas\".
