Chef at Mugaritz** (Rentería, Guipúzcoa, Spain)
Considered to be one of the most personal, influential and thought-proving chefs in international gastronomy, Andoni Luis Aduriz has been surprising critics and diners for years at his restaurant in Renteria.
Mugaritz** is more than just a restaurant, Mugaritz is a meeting point for culture, philosophy and cuisine. At this restaurant, the Guipuzcoan has always been committed to culinary evolution and an interdisciplinary approach to cooking, which has led him to transcend established boundaries, and become a rebel in the kitchen.
He was awarded the National Gastronomy Prize 2002, Aduriz (San Sebastián, 1971) and is also the president of the Spanish Euro-Toques Association and the author of about twenty books. His latest one, “Puntos de fuga”, is an intimate, easy-going description of how Mugaritz experiences cooking.
