Why Chilean gastronomy is a must if you come to our country?

For lovers of food and good food, Chile is an incredible destination. Our complex geography and enormous extension give us a unique diversity full of colors, smells and flavors out of this world.

Gastronomic portals such as Taste Atlas position us among the 32 best cuisines in the world, while specialized rankings such as The Best include Chilean restaurants in their lists.

What makes Chilean cuisine so special and why is it considered one of the best in the world?

In Chile we are privileged! With more than 4,300 kilometers of straight coastline and huge seamounts, we have species of fish, crustaceans and shellfish that you won't find anywhere else in the world.

Environmental conditions such as the cold Humboldt Current that runs through much of our territory and the rich minerals in the depths of the Pacific Ocean, allow the growth of delicious seafood.

In Chile we have an ancestral cuisine full of tradition. Chilean Creole cuisine is full of tradition and culinary heritage, which comes from our native peoples such as the Mapuche, Aymara, Rapa Nui, Atacameño, Quechua, Colla, Diaguita, Chango, Kawésqar, Yagán, Selk'nam.

The great variety of ingredients and raw materials produced in Chile, as well as the creativity and professionalism of our chefs, have led to the proliferation of haute cuisine restaurants in major cities and tourist destinations such as Santiago.

That is why we invite you to tour Chile through the unique flavors of our dishes at Bristol Restaurant. With special emphasis on local ingredients sourced from local farmers, you'll be surprised to feel that each dish captures the essence of Chile.
