Nueve Patrias
Restaurante 9 Patrias
A restaurant run by the culinary school at UNITEC that creates modern dishes from the traditional ingredients of Honduras's nine Indigenous and Afro-descendant peoples; ranked No. 1 in the city on TripAdvisor.
The restaurant is located in the culinary school on the UNITEC university campus. It opened in December 2022 and is named after Honduras's nine Indigenous and Afro-descendant peoples. The menu is developed by students who research traditional ingredients and changes four times a year with the seasons; students cook and serve under the guidance of professional chefs. Signature dishes include gallina india (local free-range chicken), and machuca and conch from the Caribbean coast. A ten-course tasting menu costs about 995 lempiras plus tax, and dishes can also be ordered individually; main courses are about 495 lempiras. Dinner is served Wednesday through Saturday, and reservations must be made in advance on the official website; for groups of seven or more, book via WhatsApp. It's at the end of Kennedy Avenue, so a taxi is recommended.
