Ka´an is a culinary project inspired by the indigenous peoples of México. We are passionate about exploring and sustaining the villages, towns and communities of the Yucatán peninsula and México. We work with local farmers, agronomists, fishermen and food suppliers to source and showcase the seasons best. Our menu varies according to the biocultural network of the Mayan area. Located 3 kilometres inside the Sian Ka´an Biosphere Reserve with the Caribbean Sea to one side, a giant lagoon to the other surrounded by hundreds of animal species we endeavour to transcribe our surroundings into our food. Our kitchen, led by Hugo Durán is one of simplistic beauty. Pre-hispanic ¨ollas¨ fashioned from Oaxaca clay and fuelled entirely by firewood is the beating heart of Ka´an. Sagaciously, Durán imparts a sense of wonder and an understanding of our magnificent location.
