El Nido by Mikuna

A first business built by Maartje and her partner, chef Alonso — with care, personality and beautifully fresh food at its centre.

Fresh ideas, before the first service.

El Nido by Mikuna is special because it is close to home in more than one sense. Maartje, Jordi’s sister, and her partner Alonso are building their first business together, with Alonso leading the kitchen.

Before the official opening, Jordi joined his father, sister and Alonso for a tasting. The plates made the ambition visible: colourful, composed and made with the freshness that gives a small local place real energy.

The most meaningful discoveries are sometimes the ones made by people closest to you.

It is a place shaped by two people willing to make their own thing — from breakfast and coffee through to bites and dinner.
