An immersive and sensory journey through Latin America arrives in the heart of the desert as Amazónico launches its first ever pop up at the highly anticipated Riyadh Oasis, from January - March 2021. The stunning pop-up restaurant showcases their signature tropical style with rainforest-inspired interiors, Latin American dishes, electro-pical music and vibe.
Located between Al-Ammariyah and Diriyah in the breath-taking desert wilderness, Amazónico has been designed by internationally acclaimed and award-winning artist, Lázaro Rosa-Violán. Within four short weeks the entire restaurant was conceptualized, designed and built from dunes to a fully functioning temporary structure resembling the very best of Amazónico. Filled with lush foliage and an abundance of natural materials, guests can discover a range of spaces including a beautiful dining room, lounge, sushi counter and outdoor terrace – ideal for sunset suppers at this luxury winter sanctuary.
Combining a blend of tropical and Latin American cuisines Amazónico’s menus are not only inspired by the countries of the Amazon but the unique Asian and Mediterranean communities which inhabit them. From Peruvian sushi and the freshest raw seafood to carefully sourced grilled meats and fish; their chefs use both traditional and cutting-edge techniques along with seasonal and vibrant ingredients. Dishes include the popular Guacamole con Erizo served with sea urchin and green plantain crisps, a variety of tropical sushi and maki rolls, and premium cuts of beef prepared in a show-stopping open kitchen. Baklava has been given an exotic twist and is served with passion fruit cream, dulce de leche and roasted nuts.
Moreover, each evening the restaurant’s most-loved resident DJs from across the world will spin high energy, elec-tropical beats providing the perfect soundtrack for sipping a range of exclusive mocktails, late into the evening.
