Boragó Santiago

Veronica's Take

Rodolfo Guzmán, the visionary behind Santiago's Boragó, has just clinched the No.23 spot on the World's 50 Best 2025 list, solidifying his status as a culinary force to be reckoned with. After years of honing his craft across Europe and Chile, Guzmán returned to Santiago in 2006 to open Boragó, a restaurant that has since become a pilgrimage site for food obsessives seeking his groundbreaking exploration of native Chilean ingredients. His relentless dedication to uncovering and elevating local produce has not only transformed the Chilean dining scene but also set a new standard for what it means to cook with a deep sense of place.

boragoscl Rodolfo Guzmán toured restaurants across Europe and Chile, learning new techniques and experimenting with flavours, before resettling in Santiago to open Boragó in 2006. Since then, the restaurant has become a haven for Guzmán’s discovery of, and research into, native Chilean produce.
