sobremesa
California, United States
Sobremesa was conceived out of our wish to help Americans become more familiar with one of the best cuisines of the world. Catalonia is home to many famous chefs and renowned restaurants, such as Ferran Adria and El Celler de Can Roca (number 1 restaurant in the world for 2013). Though we admire and follow the works of these groundbreaking, experimental chefs, we strongly believe they could not have become world-famous were it not for the strong tradition of home cooking behind them. Ask any famous Spanish chef where they learned to cook and chances are 99% of them will answer: “at home, from my mother”. Spaniards take pride in preparing meals made from scratch with local, seasonal ingredients on a daily basis. We want to teach you some basic -and not so basic- tricks and recipes to make your kitchen a Barcelonian one, too.
