About
Kaan is a culinary project inspired by the indigenous peoples of Mxico. We are passionate about exploring and sustaining the villages, towns, and communities of the Yucatn peninsula and Mxico. We work with local farmers, agronomists, fishermen and food suppliers to source and showcase the seasons best. Our menu varies according to the biocultural network of the Mayan area. Located 3 kilometers inside the Sian Kaan Biosphere Reserve with the Caribbean Sea to one side, a giant lagoon to the other surrounded by hundreds of animal species we endeavor to transcribe our surroundings into our food. Our kitchen, led by Hugo Durn is one of simplistic beauty. Pre-hispanic ollasfashioned from Oaxaca clay and fuelled entirely by firewood is the beating heart of Kaan. Sagaciously, Durn imparts a sense of wonder and an understanding of our magnificent location.
