About Chef Enrique Villegas de la Parra:
Born in Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico, Chef Enrique embarked on his culinary journey with a focus on Japanese cuisine. He honed his skills at TORI TORI under the guidance of Chef Isho Sonoda, and further developed his expertise with the ROKAI group alongside Edo Kobayashi. Seeking to carve out his own culinary identity, he moved to Monterrey to launch his first restaurant, HOTARU, under Grupo Costeño. The restaurant's success sparked a trend, leading Chef Enrique to Tulum, where he became a pioneer in establishing high-end dining in the area. His journey reached a new pinnacle with the opening of Kuu by Chef Hirokazu Sato, quickly earning acclaim as a premier destination for Japanese cuisine in the region.
About Monterrey Bar:
Monterrey Bar is a sultry tribute to The Standard Spa, Miami Beach's origins, harking back to the iconic Monterrey Motel that first opened its doors on 40 Island Avenue in 1953. Originally designed by renowned architect Norman Giller, this intimate bar offers a sophisticated escape where classic cocktails are reimagined with creative flair, and gourmet bites are crafted to perfection. The sleek, T-shaped bar, adorned with Amazonite stone, serves as the centerpiece of this hidden gem, inviting guests to savor their drinks in an atmosphere that embodies the mysterious allure of a speakeasy. Rich Afromosia wall paneling, plush ocean-inspired carpeting, and a striking Murano glass chandelier create an ambiance of refined luxury. The shelves, lined with Geoffrey Rose's playful 1980s 'Frozen Moments' pop art collection, add a whimsical touch to the setting. Come for a drink, stay for the experience.
