Andoni Aduriz to design specially tailored menus for new five-star resort in Spain
BY Chris Dodd
Renowned two Michelin star chef Andoni Luis Aduriz has entered into an agreement to design a progressive gastronomic programme at the new five-star Healthouse health resort due to open in Málaga, Spain in spring 2014.
Aduriz, of the Mugaritz restaurant in the Basque region of the country, will work with Kiluva Group, the owners of both the Naturhouse franchise network and Healthouse, to create menus dedicated to guests’ specific treatment programmes.
Aduriz will be working to develop cuisine that blends nutritive and dietetic food with aspects of luxury dining, in order to promote wellbeing at the resort.
Upon arrival, each guest will sign up for a personalised health programme, with all treatments and cuisine tailored to meet the goals of their chosen course.
The menus will be adapted to the different treatment programmes, which will cover areas of weight-reduction, anti-stress, anti-aging and detoxification.
Aduriz’s work with the Kiluva Group follows the chef’s previous work that saw him increase the nutritional profile of the menu at the Mugaritz, while the chef has also taken part to help progress research with both AZTI-Tecnalia and Senifood.
“[The partnership is] an amazing opportunity to combine the NaturHouse goal of changing and teaching healthy eating habits with the expertise and culinary skill of the distinguished Basque chef,” said Félix Revuelta, president of Kiluva.
“Aduriz’s brilliant talent will be essential in making it possible for all of our guests to enjoy healthy, balanced, tasty and creative cuisine.”
When it opens next year, Healthouse will be located on the site of the former Las Dunas Beach Hoteland Spa along the Costa del Sol, overlooking the Mediterranean.
