"When renowned chef Enrique Olvera had to move his multi-award winning Pujol restaurant in Mexico City into a larger space, his team turned the original spot into a mezcal bar, Ticuchi. He bought the two-bedroom apartment upstairs and turned it into Casa Teo, a place where he can host artist residences so that creative minds from a variety of fields can come together to exchange ideas. Centered around an open kitchen and a communal dining table for 10, Olvera often brings in chefs from out of town for special dinners bookable by the public and hosts regular talks, events, and workshops. Those who want some extra time to get their creative juices flowing—or just a truly unique base in Mexico City—can book the Casa Teo apartment via Airbnb. Simple and airy, with fluffy white beds and neutral hues, it’s perfect for relaxing and clearing your mind." - Mary Holland, Sandra Ramani
