Our menu, which includes around 25-30 proposals, often changes in order to mimic the change of stations and a glimpse of our surroundings. The construction of a menu like ours requires enormous efforts in the pursue of perfection and singularity. However, the result is a personalized experience which we know will be unique.<\/p>\n<p>In order to design your menu, we will consider all the information you give us (prior to your visit) regarding allergies,\u00a0 dislikes or any food-related restriction. Even those ingredients you simply would rather avoid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n      <\/div>\n          <div class=\"c-steps__item\">\n                <h3 class=\"c-steps__item-title\">Is there a menu?<\/h3>\n                <div class=\"c-steps__item-text\"><p>In Mugaritz there is no \u00e0 la carte option.
