Born and raised on the volcanic island of Lanzarote, Jon Pérez embarked on a culinary odyssey that took him through professional kitchens in Malta, Canada, Vigo, and Madrid – each stop refining his technique and global perspective.
In 2018, he channeled this international experience into his passion project: Nakai, where he reimagines Canarian ingredients through an Asian lens. He cooks with local products using Eastern techniques, creating a contemporary fusion with a strong sense of identity. His approach offers a bold yet respectful evolution of Canarian cuisine.
At his restaurant in Playa Honda, Lanzarote, guests find a culinary paradise of Asian fusion cuisine. Its creative menu and impeccable service make every visit an unforgettable experience.
