Presentations Undertaken::

Restaurante Zum Grobe Ernt. 16.02.01-02.03.01

Demonstration of Catalan cuisine; presentation of Catalan haute cuisine in foreign countries. Stüssihofstatt 16, 8001 Zurich.
In this welcoming restaurant owned by the Burges family, which is characterised as a Spanish restaurant in Switzerland, I managed to successfully demonstrate all my knowledge, and I am very grateful for the support and trust that was shown to me. At the end of the presentations, the kitchen team had learned new dishes that it was able to incorporate into its menu. I was subsequently given the opportunity to head the kitchen between 01.08.01 and 28.08.01as substitute head chef to cover the holiday period of the house chef.

Restaurante Hotel Krone / Eglisau. 25.09.01 - 07.10.01
Gasthaus Krone . Eglisau, Switzerland

22.04.02 - 05.05.02 2nd Mediterranean Gastronomy Presentations confirmed for the 17th - 18th weeks of 2002.

A Hotel Restaurant situated on the banks of the Rhine, surrounded by mountains. It was a paradise for the Gastronomy Presentations, as it was possible to unify the ambience of the restaurant with the sea and mountains, preparing dishes such as the typical freshwater fish of the area. In my spare time I climbed the mountain, and using my knowledge of the art of mushrooms, I found edible mushrooms that could be incorporated into the menu in such a way that the river and mountain produced a typical Swiss-Spanish dish.


Restaurante Ribo Allegra. 09.07.01 - 20.07.01.
Nüscherstrasse 1. Zurich.

A restaurant in the centre of Zurich, orientated towards the area's bank employees. Great success and a large influx of people were achieved thanks to a good press campaign and word of mouth. This well-known restaurant is run by the Ribó family of Spanish origin, and it has produced delicious Spanish cooking for over thirty years. It is now a classic in the city of Zurich and has a great reputation for its innovative cuisine, believing firmly in the products of Spain and in the young chefs who show creativity and innovation in the kitchen, and who are continually open to advice on how to perfect the preparation of the dishes.

Restaurante Parador . 01.06.01 - 17.06.01.
Luisenstrase 47. Zürich. Jornadas Gastronómicas Mediterráneas

En dicho restaurante estuve 4 meses preparando la carta inagural por ser un restaurante nuevo. Consiguiendo una nota muy alta según la critica gastronómica Suiza. Implanté una nueva carta exitosa, y cubrí las necesidades del restaurante durante mi estancia. Enseñé a los cocineros, la elaboración de los platos y cuando terminaron de aprender bien sali hacia España, por tener que atender otro tipo de ofertas en mi país.

Restaurante Parador . 01.06.01 - 17.06.01.
Luisenstrase 47. Zurich. Mediterranean Gastronomy Presentations.

I spent four months here preparing the inaugural menu as it was a new restaurant. I achieved accolades from the Swiss gastronomy critics, and implanted a successful new menu. I covered the restaurant's needs during my stay, and taught the preparation of the dishes to the chefs. When they had perfected their training I returned to Spain, where I had to attend to other kinds of offers.

Restaurante Club de Mar de Sitges. 20.03.2002 Exhibition

Talk and Foie-tasting sessions, plus its elaboration. Explaining to the listeners how to work the foodstuff, which is not worked by the woman of the house according to cultural tradition, so an objective was that they should know how to work it. There was a cocktail accompanied by the foie gras canapés, and later a supper was served with exclusively foie gras dishes. The event was a great success. Looking forward to more successes at my future gatherings.
