- Ruta de los Cenotes
Fuegos de Xul-Ha is more than a restaurant, it is a sensory experience.
If you come attentively, from the moment you enter the route of the Cenotes there are 22.5 kilometers of jungle road where you can observe a fabulous flora and fauna. When you enter Xul-Ha Eco Habitat, you get that feeling of freedom in the open air and connection with nature.
In this restaurant, every detail is carefully thought out. The kitchen is exclusively wood-fired, using traditional methods such as grills, earth ovens (called pib), clay ovens and cages, to create healthy, rustic food, full of smoked and tanned aromas and flavors. Chef Walfisch, an expert in sustainable, conscious and traditional Mexican gastronomy, leads this concept of signature cuisine.
You can take a stroll through their garden and pick your own flowers and sprouts to decorate your dishes, come and talk to the chefs, as they work in full view of all diners. The essence of the dishes lies in the use of fresh seasonal products, offering an immense variety of flavors and presentations.
The offer at Fuegos de Xul-Ha is not only defined by its type of food, but also by its wild environment. Breathing the fresh jungle air becomes an integral part of the experience, creating a unique ambiance that complements Chef Walfisch's delicious gastronomic offerings.
