Authentic Uruguayan Grilling Experience in Montevideo

Fire is the heart of everything. Discover Uruguayan grilling, taste world-class cuts, pair wines with our sommelier and live an authentic experience in Montevideo.
Fire is the heart of everything. NOMADE is an authentic Uruguayan grilling experience led by Leonardo Freire, a professional pitmaster with 28 years of fire.

This is not a restaurant. This is not a cooking class. This is an immersive journey into one of the world's greatest grilling traditions — the Uruguayan parrilla — lived from the inside, in a private garden in Montevideo.

The Experience

From the moment you arrive, the fire is already burning. You'll be welcomed with a local cold cuts board, aperitif and mate — the unmissable Uruguayan tradition. The atmosphere is warm, relaxed and authentic, with local folk music in the background and gastronomic art decorating the space.

Next comes an introduction to Uruguayan grilling — the secrets of fire that only come from thousands of hours in front of the parrilla. You'll learn about wood types, heat management, cut selection and the techniques that make Uruguayan grilling unique in the world.

Our professional sommelier will then guide you through a carefully selected wine pairing, presenting classic Uruguayan grape varieties and explaining the perfect match for each cut.

The main event is a full traditional parrilla — starters including sausages, offal and grilled cheese, followed by classic Uruguayan cuts served with grilled vegetables, fresh salads and homemade bread. All food and drinks are included — open bar with water, soft drinks, beer and wine throughout the entire experience.

We close with a traditional Uruguayan dessert, coffee or tea, and a souvenir from the house to take home.
