Description

Cocina de la Selva by Chef Carlos Medina in Sayulita offers a private chef experience that brings personalized cuisine directly to each guest.

Led by Chef Carlos Medina Fernández, we create experiences inspired by different culinary cultures, combining fresh ingredients, carefully prepared dishes, and personalized attention.

We currently have five culinary offerings:

1. MEDITERRANEAN CUISINE
Inspired by the culinary traditions of the Mediterranean, this menu brings together fresh ingredients, aromatic herbs, olive oil, and flavorful homemade recipes. It includes focaccia with olive tapenade, ratatouille, burrata with pesto, fresh fish, traditional paella, risottos, homemade pastas, and Italian-style pizzas. To finish, we offer desserts such as apple or pear tarte Tatin, tiramisu, and pears in red wine with chocolate.

2. MEXICAN CUISINE
A celebration of the authentic flavors of Mexico, with a selection of traditional dishes and regional specialties. From fresh guacamole, homemade quesadillas, and nachos to shrimp a la diabla, fresh fish, mole poblano with chicken, and burritos. To finish, classic desserts such as homemade flan, lime pie, and cheesecake with fruit sauce.

3. ARGENTINIAN CUISINE
A tribute to Argentinian gastronomy and its passion for gathering around the table. It includes homemade empanadas, cheese and cured meat boards, and the traditional Argentine asado with grilled meats, chorizos, chimichurri, and fresh salads. We also offer milanesas, shepherd’s pie (pastel de papas), and iconic desserts such as "chocotorta", "Rogel", and "vigilante".

4. JAPANESE CUISINE
An offering inspired by the delicacy and balance of Japanese cuisine, with fresh ingredients and traditional preparations. It includes edamame, wakame salad, homemade onigiri, and a selection of sushi, nigiri, rolls, sashimi, and pan-fried gyozas served with teriyaki sauce.

5. THAI CUISINE
An experience full of aromas, spices, and contrasts. The menu includes spring rolls with peanut sauce, green papaya salad, and Tom Yum soup. For main courses, Pad Thai, green or red curry with Thai rice, and Thai-style fried rice. To finish, mango sticky rice, Thai-style fried bananas, or artisanal lime and lemon sorbet.

CUSTOM MENUS
In addition to these five offerings, we design fully tailored culinary experiences, adapted to each client’s tastes, dietary preferences, and needs.

We also create special menus for romantic dinners, family gatherings, celebrations, and special occasions.

Each experience is planned in a personalized way, taking care of every detail to offer much more than a meal: a private and memorable culinary experience.

Great service, I've tried different meals on different occasions and it always exceeds my expectations.
Jungle cuisine is a unique and different experience; it's not just about eating a dish, it's so much more. I highly recommend it. Whenever I return to Nayarit, I always choose it.
