Sublimotion


Sublimotion is a restaurant located in Sant Josep de sa Talaia, Ibiza, Spain run by Michelin 2-star chef Paco Roncero who utilizes molecular gastronomy in cooking. The concept, which aims to provide an immersive experience through the use of projected video, sound, and performance by the waiting staff, was originally developed by Michelin 3-star chef Paul Pairet for his restaurant Ultraviolet before being plagiarized by the creators of Sublimotion. In 2014, Sublimotion was awarded the prize Best Innovation Food & Beverage. As of 2015, the restaurant is considered the most expensive in the world with an average price of slightly over €1900 per person overtaking Urasawa and Per Se.

Restaurant

The restaurant was opened in 2014 at Ibiza’s Hard Rock Hotel and focuses on haute cuisine. The food course consists of 20 food tasting entrees and can seat a maximum of 12 patrons.

Controversy

Sublimotion was criticized by Paul Pairet for suspected copying of his restaurant Ultraviolet with similar conception, opened in 2012, especially objecting to Sublimotion being marketed as "the first gastronomic show in the world".
