rico supper club is an intimate dining experience where food, art, and design come together to tell stories. Each gathering is carefully curated—a moment in time, a conversation, a fleeting artwork made of flavors, textures, and memories.

With a background in visual arts and communication design, I see food as more than sustenance—it’s a language, a material, a way to connect. Influenced by the various cultures I lived in and explored in my travels, by stories, myths and dreams, every supper is a fusion of ideas and cultures, shaped by curiosity and experimentation.

From the menu to the table setting, every detail is designed to spark dialogue, awaken the senses, and create a shared experience that lingers beyond the meal. At rico supper club, food is not just something to eat—it’s something to be felt, questioned, and remembered.

The final act, the sweet salvation. The dessert“For Our Sins.”

The Last Supper: Part 2/3 : And then, we feasted.

But not just for nourishment—no. This was a meal rooted in ritual, region, and resurrection. Every dish carried the weight of a story, a whisper of the past, or a wink from the divine.
