The world’s best chef Dabiz Muñoz and his DiverXO restaurant in Madrid offers a menu that is like a roller-coaster, taking you from one side to the other and you can never guess what’s next



Dabiz is in love with Asia, the ingredients, spices, techniques he encountered during his travels. DiverXO is an unusual fusion of Asian cuisine with occasional forays into the Mediterranean. The 15-course tasting menu is a genuine roller-coaster, taking you from one side to the other and you can never guess what’s next. The first course, for example, was squab, which no one ever thought of pairing with the phrase ‘compliments of the chef’. Even though the entire menu is visually pleasing, the tastes and textures will leave you speechless.
There are only a few places in the world that delighted us so much with their food selection, and not only that. Wine pairing can be challenging and it’s an art, but sommelier Miguel Ángel Millán took it to a level that you can’t get anywhere else in the world. Limited selection of 1980s champagnes, 50 to 70-year-old Spanish and French wines and finally, Pedro Ximenez Don PX Convento Seleccion dessert wine from 1929 by Bodegas Toro Albalá.
