CHARACTERISTICS

Young, creative and a keen chef, David Palacios abandoned his career in piloting planes in order to dedicate himself to cooking, his real passion. He developed his skills and work experience at places such as Maastricht in Holland, where his feeling for cuisine together with his creativity evolved. Later on he moved to Andalusia, his father’s homeland, with his family. Today, this is where he grows organic products, as well as edible flowers he uses in his dishes.

Mr Palacio’s great control of the traditional Andalusian cookery helps him elaborate exclusive dishes with modern twists. He offers gourmet cooking classes during which up to eight dishes can be tasted. Other services are meals for vegetarians, or big groups, catering, and other tailor-made orders. He is able to welcome you in his fluent English, Spanish or Dutch.

Chef David Palacios has received high praise from many different media such as Street Journal, Travel + Leisure magazine, or cnn.com web page.   

He teaches his customers how to recognize edible flowers and then make delicious dishes with them during the cooking courses or at workshops for kids. 

You will also love the route through his wine cellar where some of the best world sweet wines can be tasted as well as an original collection of dry white and red wines which is rapidly increasing.
