Great gastronomic variety
Montañita is a destination with exceptional gastronomic wealth, a product of the diversity of its local ingredients, their freshness and the care with which the community preserves and transmits traditional recipes. This culinary offer attracts both national and international tourism.
local culinary talent
Montañita is also home to a large number of foreigners who, for various reasons, chose this magical corner to live and develop their projects. Its cultural mix has given rise to a unique environment, where the influence of local culture mixes in an enriching way with foreign culture.
Culinary talent is one of the great attractions of the place, with prominent chefs such as César Masias of Tambo Peruvian flavors or Eddy Yagual of the El Tiburón restaurant who contribute their creativity and skill to the local gastronomic scene.
pigro al sol
One of the great gastronomic references of Montañita is the Italian chef Luca Piavani, who, together with his wife Diana, established himself in the place more than 15 years ago. His passion for cooking and his tireless work are reflected in Pigro al Sol, a restaurant that fuses the best of Ecuadorian gastronomy with Italian cuisine. In his dishes, local products stand out, enhanced with European techniques, always seeking innovation and excellence.
“A reference in quality cuisine”
The original concept of Pigro Clásico was born in the heart of Montañita 14 years ago, with the dream of showcasing authentic artisanal Italian gastronomy. Today, the brand is present in the main cities of Ecuador, establishing itself as a reference in quality cuisine.
