Javier Sanz y Juan Sahuquillo

Chefs at Cañitas Maite (Albacete, Spain)

Two young chefs, born in Casas Ibáñez, who have been friends since they were children, also share a profession.

Javier Sanz and Juan Sahuquillo now head up the gastronomy side of things at Grupo Cañitas, a family business where they have implemented the change of generations.

Aged twenty-five, they won a Michelin Star for OBA- (their most personal and gastronomic project) in barely 10 months, and also a Green Star, the Guide's award for the most sustainable restaurants.

They are also in charge of gastronomy at CEBO, the restaurant in Madrid's Hotel Urban 5*GL restaurant, and also at the Can Domo countryside tourism hotel in Ibiza.
