Chef Lorna Muñoz Arias serves authentic Chilean food - Chilota - from her restaurant Travesía in Castro on Chiloé island, in Chile’s spectacular Lake District. But her conscientious approach to the origin and authenticity of each dish marks Travesía out from other local restaurants. She worked with historian Renato Cárdenas Álvarez, who died in 2022, to research the dishes, and they share the cuisine in their cookbook. Book one of the few tables in the simple yellow building - where Muñoz Arias grew up - to try her hake ceviche in clam sauce, oysters with seaweed, braised octopus with chapaleles (potato dumplings) in olive sauce, eel cheek gratin, and smoked pork. For dessert, there’s passion fruit semifreddo and raspberry tart.
