Those looking for a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner in Puerto Rico that goes beyond a traditional night out will have the opportunity this year to enjoy a unique experience where gastronomy, curated pairings, and art come together to create a truly unforgettable evening.
On February 13 and 14, Chef Marisoll presents two exclusive dining experiences from her private salon inside the Puerto Rico Museum of Art, designed for guests who wish to celebrate love with elegance, learning, and carefully selected flavors.
Created for couples and food lovers seeking an alternative to the traditional Valentine’s Day dinner, these evenings offer an intimate and exclusive atmosphere where guests can enjoy, learn, and create lasting memories around the table, in a setting that blends culture, aesthetics, and fine dining.
Each evening features a carefully designed menu where pairing takes center stage. Both experiences offer the same level of culinary excellence, with two distinct approaches: one night dedicated to whisky in collaboration with The Macallan, and another focused on wine, in partnership with Bodegas Compostela.
Pairing: The Art of Combining Flavors
On both nights, pairing plays a central role. Pairing is not simply about serving a drink alongside a dish; it is about creating balance between flavors, aromas, textures, and sensations so that each element enhances the other.
A thoughtful pairing can highlight hidden notes in a dish, soften or intensify certain flavors, and completely transform the dining experience. For this reason, both experiences have been designed so that every combination has a purpose, achieving harmony that elevates each course and creates a complete sensory journey.
The goal of these evenings is for each guest not only to enjoy a special dinner, but also to discover new ways of perceiving flavor and to understand how a well-crafted pairing can turn a meal into a memorable experience.
Night 1: Whisky Pairing with The Macallan — February 13
The first evening offers an experience dedicated to high-end Scotch whisky, designed for an audience that values precision, depth of flavor, and the pleasure of a carefully curated table. It is an intimate and refined way to celebrate Valentine’s Day in Puerto Rico with a distinctive and elegant proposal.
In collaboration with The Macallan, one of the world’s most respected distilleries, the experience highlights a spirit known for its meticulous craftsmanship and extended maturation in carefully selected oak casks. This process delivers aromatic complexity expressed through subtle layers of spice, vanilla, dried fruits, and toasted notes, creating an elegant, deep, and persistent profile.

The menu has been crafted specifically to accompany a selection of The Macallan whiskies, seeking a delicate dialogue between plate and glass. Each course considers texture, intensity, and temperature to enhance the character of the whisky without overpowering it, allowing flavors to evolve harmoniously throughout the evening.
More than a tasting, the evening invites guests to observe how time, wood, and distilling style influence body and aroma, and how these nuances transform when integrated with gastronomy. It is a slow, thoughtful discovery experience meant to be enjoyed with attention and without haste.
This night is designed for those who appreciate complex profiles, deep flavors, and gastronomic experiences with identity, in an intimate setting that privileges detail, conversation, and mindful enjoyment of every moment.
Night 2: Wine Pairing with Bodegas Compostela — February 14
The second evening is dedicated to wine and to a pairing experience conceived for an audience that values fine dining, personalized service, and the details that turn a dinner into a lasting memory. It is a romantic Valentine’s Day dinner in Puerto Rico designed for guests seeking an intimate, elegant, and carefully curated celebration.
In partnership with Bodegas Compostela, the evening invites guests to explore aromas, structure, and flavor profiles, gaining insight into how each wine interacts with the dishes to create balanced, precise, and sensorially engaging combinations. The approach goes beyond the classic distinction between red and white wines, focusing instead on refined criteria such as dish weight, texture, flavor intensity, cooking method, and accompanying sauces.
Recognized for its selection of premium wines in Puerto Rico and its strong presence in the wine industry, Bodegas Compostela brings a thoughtful curation that allows for the exploration of subtle harmonies, where each glass is chosen to complement and elevate the culinary proposal without overshadowing it. The goal is to create an experience in which wine and gastronomy converse with balance and elegance.
Throughout the evening, the emphasis will be on guided sensory discovery: identifying nuances, understanding why certain wines integrate better with specific dishes, and appreciating how small elements—such as acidity, tannins, or texture—can transform flavor perception.
Rather than seeking a single perfect match, the experience invites guests to discover the harmonies that best suit their own palate, within an exclusive gastronomic experience in Puerto Rico.
This evening is ideal for wine lovers, couples, and connoisseurs who wish to celebrate Valentine’s Day in a cultural and sophisticated setting, enjoying an intimate, educational, and carefully designed experience for a discerning audience.

Chef Marisoll’s Private Salon: An Aesthetic and Sensory Setting
Both experiences will take place in Chef Marisoll’s private salon, located inside the Puerto Rico Museum of Art, a space that adds unique aesthetic and sensory value to each event.
Surrounded by art, form, and color, guests are immersed in an environment that stimulates sight, sound, and emotional sensitivity, creating a natural connection between the setting and the gastronomic proposal. Lighting, table design, music, and spatial arrangement have all been carefully curated to create a sophisticated and welcoming atmosphere.
This sensory beauty does not merely accompany the culinary experience—it enhances it. Each dish, aroma, and pairing is perceived more intensely when it becomes part of an environment that invites guests to slow down, observe, and fully enjoy the moment.
The exclusivity of the salon and its artistic surroundings transform each evening into a complete experience where senses, gastronomy, and service align to offer an intimate, elegant, and deeply memorable night.
This setting makes each event ideal not only for celebrating Valentine’s Day, but also for commemorating special occasions or enjoying the pleasure of sharing fine cuisine in an exceptional cultural environment.

Two Experiences, One Shared Philosophy
Although each night has a different focus—whisky and wine—both share the same philosophy: celebrating gastronomy, educating the palate, and creating moments that connect people around the table.
These experiences are designed for couples, groups of friends, food lovers, and those who value detail, learning, and the pleasure of enjoying a truly different evening.
An Invitation to Experience Something Truly Special
This Valentine’s Day, guests are invited to enjoy two nights designed to savor, discover, and celebrate. Two distinct proposals, the same level of excellence, and one shared intention: to create memories through fine dining and curated pairings.
Guests are invited to explore each experience in detail and secure their seats through the official reservation pages. Seating is limited, and each evening has been designed to offer an intimate and exclusive environment.
It will be an honor to welcome guests and share two nights where flavor, harmony, and thoughtful details take center stage.
