In the kitchen

On Level 3 of Casa Casco, above Plaza Herrera

Marula is a restaurant in Panama City's Casco Viejo. It opened in 2016 on Level 3 of Casa Casco, and the kitchen has followed the same idea ever since: Panamanian produce handled with technique from abroad. Fish and seafood landed that day, cuts from the grill, and spices brought from every continent. The technique travels; the Panamanian touch stays.

Sunset is the best hour
