Creo experiencias gastronómicas mexicanas con técnica, creatividad y producto local, para que tu cena se sienta auténtica y memorable.

Raúl Gonzalez Salgado

Cocino México con raíces tradicionales y libertad creativa, siempre con ingredientes locales.

Tengo 14 años de experiencia y soy orgullosamente egresado de Le Cordon Bleu México. Mi especialidad es la cocina tradicional mexicana, y al mismo tiempo me encanta explorar sabores y técnicas de distintas partes del mundo para crear cenas con identidad y emoción.

Trabajo con ingredientes locales y orgánicos para resaltar la frescura, la sostenibilidad y la autenticidad en cada plato. A lo largo de mi trayectoria he sido reconocido como el chef más joven de Yucatán y he representado a México en la Feria Culinaria de Nanchang en China, compartiendo la riqueza de nuestra gastronomía.

Hablemos de tu evento

Cocinar para mí es una forma de expresar y compartir mis sentimientos, mi conocimiento y mi creatividad; la cocina es mi espacio seguro.

Así es como hago que cada cena se sienta personal y bien ejecutada

Cocino desde la emoción y la creatividad

Cocinar para mí es una manera de expresar y compartir lo que siento, lo que sé y lo que imagino. En cada servicio cuido el detalle para que la experiencia se sienta honesta, cálida y con carácter.

Mi técnica se formó entre la calle y la escuela

Empecé mi camino a los 17 años como cocinero empírico, movido por la curiosidad y la pasión. Después me especialicé en técnicas francesas en Le Cordon Bleu, y hoy uno ambas raíces para cocinar con precisión y alma.

Respeto el ingrediente y dejo que hable

Mi secreto en la cocina es respetar el origen del ingrediente: local y orgánico cuando es posible. Para mí, menos es más; me enfoco en el sabor y en la técnica, y disfruto cada paso del proceso.

Historias y testimonios

Chef Raúl was amazing! I highly recommend him. His food was delicious and he is so kind. My family and I enjoyed talking to him and hearing the story behind the food he made.

We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming Chef Raúl into our vacation home in Mérida, and it turned out to be one of the most unforgettable highlights of our trip. From the moment he arrived, Chef Raúl was warm, personable, and deeply proud of his culture and cuisine—a true ambassador of Yucatán flavors. He guided our whole family through a hands-on cooking experience that was both fun and meaningful. We started with a delicious dzikil pak, followed by tetelas de frijol, and then an unforgettable main course: pork ribs in mole sauce that were simply to die for. We ended the meal on a perfect note with his cremita de coco, light and divine. What made it truly special was that we cooked with him, learning, laughing, and connecting through food. Chef Raúl created not just a meal, but a lasting memory we’ll cherish forever. If you’re in Mérida and want a unique and authentic experience, don’t miss the chance to cook with this amazing chef!

Chef Raúl was a great and friendly host, we thoroughly enjoyed our time dining with him. From the first message, he was flexible and always available to answer any questions. The dining experience was a 10/10 - he shared the menu with us beforehand so our group could choose dishes most suited to their tastes. We requested a menu that was more authentic and local, and boy did he deliver. Each course was so thoughtfully put together, we loved hearing abut his experiences and how he designed each dish. He was also super knowledgeable about the area and had great tips on the local town. Thank you Chef Raúl for such an amazing experience - we'd love to dine with you again, next time we're in town!

Raul went above and beyond, his presentation and knowledge of every dish was absolutely incredible. He left our kitchen cleaner then when he arrived. He was extremely friendly and attentive to every detail.

Chef Raul is an incredible chef with a very engaging personality. The food throughout the meal was incredible—the history of the Yucatán cuisine coupled with a description of the local ingredients made this memorable meal that much more special. Would strongly recommend this experience to others. Thank you Chef Raul and his lovely partner Patty.

We cannot recommend chef Raúl Gonzalez salgado highly enough. What a special evening. Raúl came totally prepared with the freshest ingredients and wowed the 11 of us with dish after dish of regional magnificence. The flavours were exquisite and from start (ceviche) to finish (creme brule) and everything in between a culinary delight. Raúl explained every dish with a smile. Do yourself a favor and book Raúl!
