Alinea

From Dreams to Realization: How Alinea Ignited My Culinary Passion In my eternal quest for culinary excellence, the world became my canvas, a place for pushing boundaries and broadening horizons. Traveling has always been more than just pleasure—it’s been a necessity, a driving force behind my urge to grow and learn. Fifteen years ago, dining at Alinea Restaurant by Chef Grant Achatz, was a distant dream, a pinnacle seemingly unreachable. But when the moment came, it became more than just a meal—it was a moment of realization. Every dish served was not just about the food; it symbolized the journey, the struggles, the relentless pursuit of inspiration that shaped me. That meal ignited a passion within me, fueling the drive for my startup RLT Cuisine, in Playa Potrero. Bourdain was right: our journeys change us, pushing us towards dreams we once deemed unreachable.
