La Mar Goes ON THE ROAD

September 9, 2025

La Mar Miami is taking its vibrant flavors beyond its home on Brickell Key. With ON THE ROAD, Executive Chef Diego Oka embarks on a culinary journey to collaborate with fellow chefs around the world, creating one-night-only experiences that celebrate the art of sharing kitchens, stories, and flavors.

This campaign marks a series of collaborative dinners where the essence of La Mar meets the unique voices of celebrated chefs from sister restaurants and beyond. Each stop is an invitation to explore, taste, and celebrate together.


First Stop: Yakumanka Barcelona

To begin the journey, La Mar Miami traveled to Spain for a special evening at Yakumanka Barcelona, celebrating the restaurant’s 8th anniversary. On Tuesday, September 16, Chef Diego Oka joined forces with Chef Tomás de la Paz, Yakumanka’s Executive Chef, for an unforgettable four-hands dinner.

The menu showcased the harmony of Peruvian heritage, local Spanish ingredients, and innovation. Guests enjoyed an intimate, limited-seat celebration that brought together the heart of Barcelona with the soul of Peru.


Second Stop: La Mar Madrid

The road then led to La Mar Madrid, where from September 18 to 20, the spotlight turned to the flavors of the Spanish capital. Chef Diego Oka partnered with Chef Rodrigo Ferrer, Executive Chef of La Mar Madrid, to design a menu that blended tradition, memory, and creativity.

Over the course of three nights, guests were invited to experience special dishes born from the union of two kitchens that share roots, passion, and the joy of bringing people together. This stop embodied the campaign’s mission: celebrating family, flavors, and the stories behind every dish.


A Journey of Flavors

ON THE ROAD is more than a series of dinners—it’s a culinary bridge connecting cities, chefs, and communities. With each stop, La Mar Miami brings the warmth of its kitchen to new destinations, while honoring the chefs who lead the way locally.

Stay tuned for the next chapters of La Mar Miami Goes ON THE ROAD as we continue to celebrate the spirit of collaboration, discovery, and togetherness—one city at a time.
