A native of Asturia, a beautiful province in the north of Spain. Jesus has worked in restaurants all over Spain, from traditional ones to Michelin-starred. For the last 6 years he has been cooking in a renowned tapas bar in Mallorca. Jesus loves good food, gastronomy, which he has been doing at a professional level for over 22 years.
His favourite cuisine is traditional, full of flavour and without pretence. Fresh fish, seafood, quality meat. He has lived in the Czech Republic for over 13 years and it is, as he says, his second home.
In the Czech Republic Jesus works in two restaurants - La Bodega in České Budějovice and La Cantina del Golf in Hluboká.
