It is the

most famous avocado on Instagram.

Earn more in video (see how the show opens) than in photo, it must be said. And on the palate, of course. It is not about the quality of the raw material, which is also about, but what is inside it: an egg cooked in soy sauce. It is

one of the star dishes of the French chef Jean Imbert

, and we do not know the complete recipe because, like all those that succeed, it has something of a secret.

Those who share in their

stories

this delicacy that is eaten to the skin, do so from Ibiza. It's one of the

recommended bites of

El Silencio

, a new Beach House named after the Parisian club made world famous by David Lynch. Although it is the same agency that is behind it, there are no memberships worth thousands of euros here, nor is its location underground. The concept itself is the same:

a laboratory for the dissemination of art and culture for creative minds

wanting to eat, drink and not miss anything, not even a sunset (watch out for enjoying it from their tables).

Mediterranean cuisine and cocktails rule in

this eclectic mix

added to an unpredictable cultural program.

A bet on what the new Ibiza will be (or is being).

Jean's famous avocado.

It is located in the lesser-known

Cala Molí

, south of Cala Tarida, in the municipality of San José.

It is difficult to find coves that are not overcrowded, due to their small dimensions and because they are the main attraction of the island, but this is perfect to spend a quiet day.

The fault, probably, is its boulders, a small discomfort that does not matter, the truth: between mountains and surrounded by vegetation, it is

a unique enclave for

snorkeling

and a must-see place.


Despite not being on the most touristy routes, El Silencio is not the first to serve cocktails in Cala Molí. There used to be a paella restaurant and in 2017 Cathy Guetta (David Guetta's ex-wife) set up her famous

Bagatelle Beach Ibiza there,

which closed shortly after. "Our goal is to unite creative people from all over the world, curious minds wanting to meet. Ibiza is perfect for this, it

is the only place in Europe where people from so many parts of the world and so different come together in such a natural way. .

in addition, the island has returned to his 70s, cares about the environment and is being transformed into something else, we want to

be part of it ,

"says French businessman Arnaud Frisch, owner of El Silencio.

As much as its look is a chiringuito or its restaurant area is in the sand, it is already clear what El Silencio is not.

It is not a place for paellas, croquettes and tinto de verano

(without discrediting any of the above).

The gastronomic concept, led by Jean Imbert, is inspired by ToShare, a restaurant with dishes to share that the chef devised last year with

Pharrell Williams in Saint Tropez

.

Of course, not all dishes have their origin in French territory.

"For El Silencio it

is important to be part of the island

, meet local producers and also create some dishes with the raw material that Ibiza offers us," says the French chef.

Adapted to the Ibizan gastronomy, in the menu we can find, in addition to the famous avocado,

other dishes that do not go unnoticed

, such as a melon stuffed with sweet pepper, clams with piquillo butter, a wild tuna, Iberian feather with sweet potato and chorizo or a rice with shrimp.

And be careful with their desserts, because they have some

homemade ice creams

and a

cookie

of considerable size that is well worth trying (rather sharing).

In principle, the menu will not have variations, "but there are dishes with fresh produce that will change according to the season," says the chef.

From the

pairing Diego Cabrera is responsible

,

with its most famous cocktails adapted for the occasion. So yes, we can say that Ibiza has, from now on, a piece of its Madrid temple El Salmón Gurú (Calle de Echegaray, 21). The menu

does not lack icons such as its Tonico Sprenger

, a long and very refreshing drink based on gin, macerated with cardamom and fermented ginger soda (it is decorated with cucumber, to give it an extra freshness).

In Silence,

his team has a vertical garden

to have all the botanicals they need at hand (and fresh).

In addition, they are starting to work with a new line of cocktails rested in amphorae on the seabed.

"It has already been done with wine and beer, but not with cocktails. What we are looking for is

the interaction of the minerals in the water

, the salinity, with the cocktail liquid. The result is much tastier, much more ummic. We already have one available at Salmón Gurú, but the idea is to produce a whole line that goes from the most classic to the most daring, even looking for an anaerobic fermentation inside these amphorae. We are in the process of research and a marine biologist helps us ", says Diego Cabrera.

MIRANDA MAKAROFF AND HER ENCOUNTER WITH AN OCTOPUS

Designed by the local architecture studio Moredesign,

El Silencio is divided into several spaces

: a main restaurant, a tapas restaurant, a poolside cocktail bar (yes, you can enjoy that wonderful beach and pool combo), a private lounge for events and a

chill out

area

with comfortable beds.

A work inspired by the original beach houses of the 70s

that fits perfectly with the cove and the natural environment.

The cultural program is extensive and the season will feature screenings, music (

Arman Naféei is

on

staff

) and events in the wake of the Club Silencio in Paris.

For now, the artistic starting point is the

dreamlike vision of Miranda Makaroff

, who has turned the tapas bar into a large-scale installation under the name

The Octopus Visit

.

A

retro-surrealist work

in which his color stamp is evident and that recounts an experience he had near El Silencio and whose protagonist was an octopus.

"It is a dream to work with a

team that has revolutionized culture, achieving a mix of modernity and elegance

, intellectuality and fun. Concepts that for some may sound opposite but that resonate within their clubs," explains the

influencer

.

Ahead, a whole summer (which is not little) to become known and become the meeting point that is already that other Silence created by David Lynch, a true Parisian emblem.

For now, avocados continue to invade Instagram.
