Chef Dabiz Muñoz makes a mark and, finally, will not run his restaurant DiverXO to La Fincathe exclusive urbanization located in Pozuelo de Alarcón (Madrid), after projecting an investment of up to 14 million euros in the works of this new restaurant at the beginning of the year, as reported by the chef this Friday on his Instagram account.

“After careful consideration, I have decided not to go ahead with the project we had announced, a difficult but necessary decision“Muñoz assured, adding that the new restaurant has to be “iconic, unique, groundbreaking, dreamlike, transgressive and without ties.”

“From today we are already working on new options that make my dream come true,” said the man considered for the last three years as the best chef in the world. “Now more than ever, the best is yet to come, we have not yet shown our best version“, they have stated in a message on the social network.

At the beginning of the year, it was Muñoz himself who announced during the celebration of the Madrid Fusión gastronomic congress that the new opening of the restaurant would make the establishment “the best restaurant of all” and that it would have an investment of “between 12 and 14 million euros in totalbetween the works and the construction of the building” To make it possible, Muñoz allied with La Finca, a company founded by the García Cereceda family from where they were going to be in charge of the infrastructure, that is, the land and the work.

DiverXO opened in 2007 on Bravo Murillo Street in Madrid and in 2014, seven years later, and with three Michelin stars, it moved to the NH Collection Madrid Eurobuilding Hotel.
