About Andō
Helmed by Chef-Founder, Agustin Balbi, the restaurant’s name has multiple meanings: in Spanish, it acts as the present participle – the act of doing, whilst in Japanese, the word alludes to a sense of comfort. This dual meaning reflects the interesting concept behind Andō in which Balbi fuses his Spanish ancestral roots with Japanese inspiration – Japan being the land that heavily shaped his skills in the kitchen.
Defying labels and bending genres, Andō’s modern tasting menu is a translation of Agustin’s unorthodox journey onto the plate.
