Thursday May 13th: Homage series - QuiQue Dacosta


This Thursday we continue our homage series with QuiQue Dacosta Executive Chef of El Poblet, Denia Spain. Perhaps more so than any other chef, Dacosta is a virtuoso, whose food transcends culinary art, and borders on impressionism, expressionism, and even abstraction. What is impressive is that his food is as accomplished (or more) from a technical standpoint. Needless to say, our humble dishes will surely pale in comparison to what you could experience in Southeastern Spain, where the Montgo Mountain meets the Mediterranean Coast, but we hope you'll enjoy it.
