Chef and owner of the world-renowned Boragó restaurant in Santiago, which was chosen the world’s most sustainable restaurant in 2021 and in 2022 ranked 43rd among The World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
After training as a chef and then working in top restaurants in Chile and Europe, Rodolfo opened Boragó in 2006, and since then has introduced new techniques, ingredients and Chilean products to the world. He bases his cuisine on his intimate knowledge of Chile’s territory and the ingredients it offers, working with more than 200 producers and wildcrafters around the country. He and his team have documented the uses and properties of Chile’s endemic dispensary, employing ingredients that have never before been considered, such as the ancient foods of the Mapuche people. Restaurante Boragó first earned a place on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants ranking in 2015, and it has remained on the list for six consecutive years.
