🧭 The Founder Miguel’s Secret Story: A Dreamer Turned Restauranteur 🍽️
Who is Miguel?
He was an adventurer who set out in search of El Dorado! Though he failed to find gold, he created a restaurant for his fellow explorers.
🏆 The Adventurer Who Dreamed of Gold
In the 1880s, the Lost River Delta became a gathering place for explorers who believed in the legend of El Dorado—the fabled city of gold.
Among them was Miguel Houston.
He chased his dream by panning for gold in rivers and digging deep into caves, hoping to uncover the treasure of legends.
However, he never found the gold he sought. Instead, he began selling the artifacts and crafts he discovered to make a living.
One day, Miguel realized that there was no place where adventurers could gather and rest.
That’s when he made the bold decision to create a restaurant where explorers could feel safe, share stories, and enjoy each other’s company.
Ever the optimist, Miguel transformed his failed dream into something even greater—
a warm and welcoming place where friends could come together and connect. ✨🍽️
