WHERE MEZCAL MEETS MASTERY

In the heart of Yucatan, is Arca Tulum. Ranking No. 23 on North America's 50 best bars, it marries culinary artistry and Oaxacan mezcal mastery. Guided by Chef Hinostroza's standards, the adept team crafts and elucidates signature blends like the Har Mar Superstar (mezcal, ginger, honey, lemon and thyme), ensuring every guest's experience is nothing short of exceptional.

Seeds of
passion

A Southern California native, Chef Hinostroza's formative years were spent in a Mexican household, situated in America's rich agricultural heartland.

This region, also known as the birthplace of the farm-to-table movement, played a pivotal role in shaping his early culinary ideology.

Blossoming
beyond borders

From Alinea in Chicago to Europe's Maaemo and El Celler de Can Roca, Chef Hinostroza has journeyed through renowned Michelin-starred restaurants.

By age 24, he was Chef de Cuisine at The Netherlands' De Kromme Watergang and later, part of noma's dynamic team in Copenhagen.

In full
bloom

Currently helming ARCA, Chef Hinostroza has earned distinguished placements on the World’s 50 Best Restaurant and Bar lists at #29 and #29 respectively, the first property in the world to have received these accolades for both kitchen and bar. ARCA epitomises his 15-year journey, as he continues to deliver unmatched fine-dining experiences.
