The Best Restaurants Near Luciano K, by the Record

A fifteen-seat tasting menu restaurant inside the Magnolia Hotel in Bellas Artes, Demo Magnolia treats Santiago itself as the ingredient list, tracing the city from La Vega's produce markets to its deep Asian culinary roots. The chef came up through Boragó and Quintonil, and the cooking shows it. It holds a spot on Latin America's 50 Best list. Savoury ice creams and seaweed cheesecake tart close things out, which feels about right for a place named after democratisation.
