MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
A restaurant that is definitely in vogue and one which continues to gain new fans – even the royal family celebrated a birthday here! Located close to the legendary Santiago Bernabéu football stadium, Pabú reflects the gourmet vision of Coco Montes, a Cordon Bleu chef who has worked in prestigious restaurants such as Arpège in Paris, under the baton of famous chef Alain Passard. His cooking is based around the purity of ingredients, hence his championing of micro-seasonal cuisine that changes daily in line with provisions from his suppliers and is highly focused on vegetables, with little protein, delicate textures and plenty of personality. It also highlights an extensive knowledge of classic French techniques and is centred around two surprise tasting menus (Pate and Bubú), although dishes on these can also be ordered individually à la carte style. The bread here is made with natural sourdough, while the selection of international cheeses is particularly impressive.
