The story
La Planchada (“the ironed one”) is one of Mexico's best-known urban legends: the ghost of a nurse in a spotless uniform who roams hospitals at night.
Eulalia insists the tasting continue with the director while she tells her story. But no one leaves until they uncover the truth. If they succeed, she will bless them forever; if not, she'll haunt their dreams.
How it works
Between cups, guests hear the legend, decode encrypted medical files and piece together a lost diary.
The goal: solve the mystery of the doctor who betrayed Eulalia and finally give her the peace she needs to fade away.
