Our chef, the Basque Oskar Reboredo, started his professional career working under chef Mike Uría in José Luis Restaurant in Madrid and learnt his trade in several prestigious Spanish restaurants including Botafumeiro, Les Catre Gats and Shoko in Barcelona and the five-star Iberostar Hotel in Mallorca.

In 2002 Reboredo moved to London where he worked in the kitchens of some of the most innovative restaurants such as Sketch, by the emblematic Pierre Garnier, whose elaborate fusion cuisine gained him three Michelin Stars; and the Michelin Star Japanese restaurant Zuma.

However his success came when he became head chef at the L restaurant, which was awarded as the restaurant of the year in Modern Iberian Food in 2006. It was also during that stage when he achieved his first personal award as UK Best Dish Award by the Restaurant Magazine for his dish “Courgette flowers stuffed with bufala mozzarella and Cantabric anchovies in beetroot tempura”. During the same year he was also recommended by the Michelin Guide and collaborated weekly with the newspaper The Guardian where he published his own recipes.
