restaurants in the world.

studies at the prestigious Hoffmann School in Barcelona in 2016 he gained experience in the
renowned Noma restaurant in Copenhagen under the guidance of Chef René Redzepi,recognized on several occasions as the best restaurant in the world and leader of the Nordic
gastronomic revolution.

growing in Gaggan, which in 2018 is consolidated as the best restaurant in Asia for the fourth
consecutive year, ranking 7th in the world ranking.
In 2017 he returns home to translate everything he has learned in the form of dishes, in charge
of the cuisine of the well-known restaurant De Cuchara in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, to
make the leap to Pícaro, his first personal project as a chef, perfectly combining avant-garde
with the tradition of local cuisine.
