Farm Inspired Cuisine in Tulum
by Chef Enrique Silva
Every plate achieves that elusive, cuisine-defining balance of sweet, salty, and sour with an emphasis on fresh, local produce.
THE KITCHEN
ENRIQUE SILVA Executive Chef & Owner
Originally from Sonora, Mexico, Enrique Silva started his culinary carreer in Los Cabos in 1990 armed with a degree in agricultural engineering and a love for Mexican cuisine learned in his mother’s kitchen as she prepared daily meals for his large family. After working with master chef Larry Nicola at Hotel Palmilla, Silva opened Restaurant Tequila in San Jose del Cabo in 1995 and founded Los Tamarindos in 2006 with a vision of providing a unique Mexican farm-to-table experience where food-freshness and seasonality dictate what dishes we serve. Now he brings his vision to Tulum aiming to blend his style with Mayan flavors.
