“LATERALUS” BY TOOL
There are songs you don’t just hear—you go through them. Lateralus taught me that true creation isn’t linear. That the path spirals—painful, but always rising. I’m inspired by its fractal rhythm, its way of growing without repeating. It reminds me that art is born from imbalance, that there’s beauty in what’s unfinished and power in pushing forward when you can’t see the end. That’s the rhythm I try to live, serve, and create by.
SCENT OF A FRESHLY CUT LEMON
Cutting into a lemon and catching that citrus burst takes me back to childhood kitchens, to markets, to summer siestas. It inspires me because it’s real, because it’s simple.
BUENOS AIRES: THE CHAOS THAT BRINGS ME ORDER
Buenos Aires isn’t a city; it’s a pulse. A mix of tango, honking horns, long embraces, and shared tables. It shaped me among cracked sidewalks and bars that never close. It gave me the hunger and the language with which I serve every drink. There’s no place in the world that inspires me more than this messy, beautiful city—where everything is too much, but everything is real.
THE SECRET LANGUAGE OF OBJECTS
An old glass. A worn-out corkscrew. A hand-me-down apron. The tools of the bar hold memory. They inspire me because they speak without words. They remind me that this isn’t just technique—it’s craft, it’s ritual, it’s soulful repetition. Every object carries a story, and if you know how to listen, it helps you tell your own.
