The Cantina La No. 20, designed by Serrano Monjaraz Arquitectos, features on the ground floor the dining area, divided into smoking and non-smoking zones, directly connected to the kitchen, terrace, and services. Due to the necessity for the passage of the installations, the kitchen was raised 18 cm above the floor level. The entrance to the restaurant is located on the main facade, where the terrace adjacent to the mall corridor is situated
Exhibition of art objects, design, and open spaces for Cantina La No. 20 in Mexico City
The project for Cantina La No. 20 is developed over an area divided into two levels, primarily composed of four sections, totaling 323 squared meters
For the terrace, a pergola was designed with a metal structure and glass covering to protect from rain and make the most of the pleasant temperatures enjoyed for most of the year. The ground floor also hosts the bar attached to the smoking area. At the back of the establishment, there's the 188 m^2 kitchen, which has a direct connection and independent access to the service corridor of the shopping center for the comfort and efficiency of suppliers and restaurant staff
The interior design stipulates that the two areas - the kitchen and the dining hall - be separated by a counter that's 0.95 m high, allowing for direct visual contact. Atop this counter, art pieces and handicrafts, sculptures, and various elements decorate wooden shelves. On the second level, or mezzanine, is the administration followed by a locker area, which concludes with the server that receives audio, video, and multimedia equipment. Restrooms, a non-refrigerated product storage room, and a cold storage cell complete this level
Cantina La No. 20 features natural lighting and ventilation in the smoking area and terrace, while the non-smoking area and the kitchen are equipped with air conditioning. "Solartube" devices bring sunlight into the interiors
