Nizuc, sensory experiences with flavors of the Mexican Caribbean

Established in a paradise of white sand, in the exclusive area of Punta Nizuc, is Nizuc Resort & Spa, an incredible luxury destination in the Mexican Caribbean. In the beauty of its design the tranquility of nature is captured, and at the same time it connects us with the ancestral energy of the area. The fine sand, the turquoise blue sea, the gentle breeze and the impressive coral reef seem to be there just for our delight.

Chef Alicia was born in the state of Guanajuato, where she studied and graduated with honors in culinary arts and gastronomy. His professional career began with internships at Meliá Hotels and in various catering and event organization companies. Always ready for new challenges, she accepted an offer at Epcot Center in Orlando in Mexican restaurants and after a year she decided to join Disney Cruise Lines, the renowned theme park cruise. During these years he had the opportunity to apply his knowledge in different areas and types of cuisine. Being in a multicultural work environment, where each Chef contributed his personal touch, he has the opportunity to try the different cuisines of the world through travel.

Increasingly, Chef Alicia is developing a great interest in Asian cuisine. Its exotic spices, ingredients and preparation become the subject of study and experimentation, of constant learning. In 2013, he joined Nizuc Resort & Spa during the hotel opening process and did so at the Indochine restaurant, where he was able to share with experienced chefs in traditional cuisine from Japan, China, Thailand and India.
Ramona Restaurant was conceived from the beginning as a place where the simple becomes extraordinary. The decoration of the place, which evokes a stone cloister with solid wood pieces as protagonists and a replica of the mural of the Agustino Convent of Malinalco, make it a simply cozy enclosure.
