ABOUT US
Jesus Romero learned all the secrets of his food from his family, especially his grandmother who spent a large part of her life in Gandia (Valencia). The times that they cooked paella were probably the most memorable for him as they would gather around the paella and watch each step of how it was cooked.
They laughed, drank, danced, discussed, argued and connected with each other in a way that has kept them close throughout the years. He felt that this experience was invaluable and wanted to share it with others. No need to go to a fancy restaurant.
He will do the cooking in front of you and let you experience the process of its creation. While you wait, your senses will be awakened by delicious appetizers, wines and flamenco rhythms.
Let us bring a taste of Spain to your party!
