Paris, Apr 29 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Marta Garde / Ian Langsdon) Film lovers in France, where cinemas have been closed since November due to the pandemic, have a space to fill the absence of the big screen in the recently opened Hotel Paradiso in Paris, the first of its kind and designed to make the most of the cinematic experience.The project of the French production company and distributor MK2, an emblem of independent cinema began to take shape about seven years ago, but its inauguration this March coincided in the middle of the uncertainty for the sector.FOOTAGE OF THE PARADISO HOTEL/CINEMA IN PARIS. SOUNDBITES OF NATHANAËL KARMITZ (in French), CO-LEADER OF THE MK2 CHAIN.Translation:1. It is the first cinema-hotel in two respects. It is the first conceived with a cinema and, something unique, in the room we are in, there is a real cinema in your room.2. There is a set of elements with which everything is designed so that it is not like watching something at home, so that it is a complete projection with a level of quality, programming and selection of films that you cannot find elsewhere.3. It is not a replacement for the movie theater, it is a complement, another way to experience movies.4. It is not a hotel to which we have added cinema, it is a hotel conceived around the cinematographic experience.5. You will find the cinema through a thousand little details. For example, the vintage telephone that you find in each room, an indirect tribute to Hollywood in the 50s, but above all two very important details: the hotel's phone number ends in 2001, and more importantly, if you want to call reception, for room service or an assistant to help you, you have to dial 007, and 007 comes to your room very quickly.6. If there are proposals in Spain we will be delighted to hear them because we are a true Franco-Spanish company, almost 50% of our activity today is done in Spain. Obviously, if there is an opportunity to develop this concept of Hotel Paradiso in Spain, we will study it with enthusiasm.

Mexican chef Juan Licerio Alcala, who works at the Grand Velas Los Cabos luxury hotel in Mexico's Cabo San Lucas, has unveiled his latest offering - the world's most expensive taco. The golden taco is only available to the most affluent guests. Just to have a chance to order the taco, customers must already be staying in the hotel's luxury presidential suite and pay a $12,500 deposit. Then, if the well-to-do client still has enough pocket change left, they must pay $25,000 to order the ground-breaking gastronomic experience. While many may scoff at the taco's price, Alcala said the gold taco was worth every penny since it is a totally one-of-a-kind culinary dish featuring the finest ingredients in Mexico and Europe.
