Pabú is a creative (Creativa) restaurant located at Panamá 4, Madrid[1].
Overview
The restaurant charms both gastronomically and in its decor: its beautiful tables were bought at antique auctions and given a second life. Chef Coco Montes trained at Le Cordon Bleu and at prestigious houses such as Paris's Arpège. His proposal pursues the purity of the product, defending a micro-seasonal kitchen that changes daily according to what his suppliers bring, with a strong focus on vegetable produce, little protein and delicate textures, and it reveals a complete command of classic French techniques[1].
Dishes & Highlights
The restaurant offers two surprise tasting menus dedicated to his parents' nicknames: Bubú and Pate (the latter, with eight dishes, is also available in half portions). They bake their own bread, offer an interesting cheese board, and hold a large selection of champagnes from small producers[1].
