Where the Seven-Fires meet the wildness of the coast

Francis Mallmann: The Artistic Maestro
Francis Mallmann, celebrated globally for revolutionising the art of cooking over an open flame, brings his culinary artistry to life in the tranquil setting of Pueblo Garzón. Here, amidst the flickering flames and under starlit skies, Mallmann crafts exquisite daily experiences to his guests, weaving his love for the primal elements of fire, air, and earth into each dish. Known for his mesmerising feature on Netflix’s Chef’s Table, Mallmann is not just a chef; he’s a creator of experiences, an artist who paints with fire, flavours and emotions.

Your Cinematic Setting: Pueblo Garzón
In Pueblo Garzón, every corner tells a story. This historic village, untouched by time’s hurried pace, sets the stage for an immersive culinary journey. Here, in this picturesque setting, you are not just a guest but a character in a living, breathing movie directed by Mallmann himself, where the rustic charm of the past meets the creative spirit of the present. Mallmann’s presence transforms each meal into an intimate fireside chat, where stories are shared, and gastronomic wonders are revealed.

Accommodation: Casa Anna
Your retreat at Casa Anna is a blend of comfort, elegance, and artistic flair. Each room is a testament to Mallmann’s attention to detail, designed to make your stay not just comfortable but memorable. It’s a place where rustic charm and simplicity coexist, where every moment is an opportunity to relax, reflect, and indulge in the finer things in life.

The Experience: Intimate and Artful
Imagine sitting by the fire, engaging in deep conversations with Mallmann, as he shares his journey from his love to Paris, to high-end French cuisine and the open-fire cooking that made him a global sensation. Each day brings a new  adventure, from hands-on cooking classes to gourmet meals under the stars. This experience is a sensory exploration, a chance to live and breathe the art of cooking as taught by a master.

“In Uruguay, where I live in Garzón, this little phantom town, I have five homes, and I go through them every day. They all have different books and paintings, and it’s not that they’re mansions; some of them are very small. I wake up in one, do my sewing in another, then move to another.”

Francis MallmannChef, Author, Restaurateur
