2 Filipino chefs to present at gastronomy congress in San Sebastián, Spain

Sarsá Kitchen + Bar’s JP Anglo and Café Fleur’s Sau del Rosario are among the speakers at this year’s San Sebastian Gastronomika.

Following the culinary revolution that began 20 years ago in Spain, the gastronomy congress is an annual culinary convention that seeks to highlight innovation in cuisine and serve as a platform for chefs from all over the world to present and learn about gastronomic trends. This year’s theme is an homage to the different flavors covered by Spanish explorer Juan Sebastián Elcano’s journey around the world (the first ever successful circumnavigation of the globe). 

The 21st edition of San Sebastian Gastronomika is a study on global flavors that celebrates modern Spanish cuisine’s commitment to “gastronomy without borders,” highlighting both the traditions of and emerging trends in Canarian, Brazilian, Chilean, and Indonesian cuisines among others. 

Anglo and del Rosario will join a roster of notable presenters, including Denis Courtiade of Plaza Athénée, Aitor Arregui of Elkano, and chef Angél León of three Michelin-starred restaurant Aponiente.
