Upalupa 4 Hands

Lucas Ordóñez and Samuel Hernández join forces for an evening to savour

On 11 November 2026, enjoy an exquisite culinary experience at our Upalupa Moments & Tastes restaurant, born from a dialogue between two distinct culinary philosophies. A one-off dinner, with optional wine and signature cocktail pairings.

Much more than dinner…

A five-course tasting menu that brings together the essence of both chefs’ cuisine.

The evening begins with three appetisers: electric oyster; scallop with toasted hazelnut foam and green apple; and anchovy on brioche with goat’s butter and tomato.

These are followed by caldo de millo, a Canarian corn broth by Samuel Hernández; “Upalupa” amberjack with sweet potato escacho and a fennel and anise escabeche; and pelibuey lamb royale with papa de color (a Canarian heritage potato) and demi-glace.

The sweet finale comes with a chestnut, chocolate and mandarin dessert, the perfect ending to this remarkable sensory journey.

Date: Wednesday 11 November • Time: 7.30 pm • Venue: Upalupa Moments & Tastes • Price: without pairing: €60 per person - with pairing: €95 per person - con maridaje: 95 €/persona • Limited places available.

Upalupa Moments & Tastes sets the stage for this meeting between two chefs with complementary roots and visions.

Lucas Ordóñez, head chef at Las Villas, Alisios Market Food and Upalupa Moments & Tastes, among other dining venues at Bahía del Duque, has been part of the hotel for more than two decades. With deep Mediterranean roots, Lucas blends the essence of classic cuisine with contemporary techniques and a masterful use of spices.

Samuel Hernández returns to Bahía del Duque, where he worked at an earlier stage of his career. He trained at IES La Candelaria and, in 2015, was named one of the ten best young head chefs in the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. His cooking is rooted in respect for traditional flavours and produce, and combines Arab and Mediterranean influences, a style he showcases at Zoco, in Los Cristianos. At El Legado, in La Escalona, he reinterprets traditional Canarian cuisine.
