Ikaro

Behind Ikaro’s façade, you’ll find a strong work ethic, enthusiasm and creativity in equal measure, along with the beautiful story of a dream come true. Here, couple Carolina Sánchez (from Cuenca in Ecuador) and Iñaki Murua (from Laguardia in Spain) are two chefs who now combine their working and personal lives after meeting at the Basque Culinary Center. Their attractive yet humble cuisine will surprise guests with its high level of technique, combining their respective culinary worlds: the superb bounty of La Rioja is enhanced by the fruits and condiments of Ecuador, resulting in dishes with incredible flavour.An interesting anecdote here is that Carolina Sánchez, who has become very well known in her role as a judge in her home country’s MasterChef series, has the honour of being the only female Ecuadorian chef to be awarded a Michelin star!
