There they grew up, they dreamed of dedicating themselves to restaurants, and that is where they have built their entire gastronomic empire, becoming a culinary destination for lovers of eating and drinking from all over the planet.

In the video that accompanies this news, they show us another of the dishes that they keep in their memory, and they don’t want it to be lost: cannelloni, made from the matriarch’s recipe.

Or the dish, so dear to them, that her grandmother cooked for her childhood snacks, such as the pan tumaca that accompanies the lamb prepared at a low temperature and passed, round and round, on the grill.

They are dishes that are part of his family history and that he goes through step by step in this video for EL PAÍS.
