• Food Truck..The three-star chef from 'DiverXo' opens a stand specializing in hot dogs and dumplings.

Is eating at five in the afternoon a late lunch, a snack, or a very early dinner?

You would have to ask the dozens of people who, on a frosty Madrid afternoon in late December,

queued for more than 30 minutes

before

GoXo

, which opens at that time.

And the answer, probably, would be the same in all cases: neither lunch nor snack nor dinner, the point is to try

Dabiz Muñoz's most roguish street cuisine

, which is only dispatched between five in the afternoon and midnight. 21.30 hours.

Goxo

is the most casual and informal project of the chef triestrellado of

DiverXo

, which opened the first week of December and in less than a month has become one of the great capital phenomena, if not the largest, of the ill-fated 2020.

Ah

Located on the Azca esplanade, with access from Orense street and right at the entrance of the new

Gourmets Club of

El Corte Inglés de Nuevos Ministerios,

GoXo

is

a food truck

(that is, a street stall), with a huge

sausage

cartoon

from the chef next door,

where Muñoz shows his passion for Asian-inspired street food

.

The formula couldn't be simpler: two varieties of hot dog, one for dumplings, one dessert, and several drinks.

That simple, that attractive, that basic and that rich.

Ah

The

Japanese-Korean puppy

consists of a fluffy toasted butter brioche with charcoal-smoked frankfurter, homemade kimchi ketchup, yuzu mayonnaise and black truffles, creamy egg yolk, and tempura crumbs.

The

Mumbai puppy

repeats brioche and sausage, which in this case are served with butter masala of very ripe vine tomatoes, vindaloo aioli, pickled mint and sundried tomato chutney.

Both are priced at 12 euros and, in our opinion, the second is more successful than the first, as it takes us to the crazed traffic of the crazed Bombay ... with the Gateway of India in the background.

Ah

The

dumplings

of Chinese origin, these raviolis to the steam that have accompanied Muñoz from his first steps on the street Francisco Medrano (who, among those who met the founding house, do not remember your toltilla spanish?) Are

the bolognese

, stuffed of vegetables in the wok and with a red cow sauce and smoked chorizo ​​from León with the five Chinese spices, Parmesan foam and mustard-honey juice.

They also cost 12 euros and are highly addictive.

Ah

Finally, the dessert, a homage by the chef to his partner and partner:

Pedroche cake

, which includes fresh cheese and Parmesan, a biscuit with toasted butter and Sichuan pepper.

Priced at 10 euros, it is especially recommended for those with a sweet tooth.

To drink, more exotic:

thai margarita of mezcal or caipiroska of kumquats

, both at 12.50 euros.

GoXo

shares a name with the delivery service that the Madrilenian chef launched during confinement before the forced closure of

DiverXo

and which has become one of the most demanded in the city.

At the same time,

its unquestionable success is a kind of moral compensation for Muñoz after being forced to liquidate his ambitious London

StreetXo

project

.
