El Hogar Gallego is celebrating a stellar moment in its history with recent accolades received. This 2024, Toni Gordillo, our beloved chef and a key figure in the gastronomic world of Maresme, has once again been recognized for his culinary excellence: he has been awarded 1 Sun by the Guía Repsol, thus maintaining the recognition that has been held since 2013, and he also renews the recommendation from the prestigious Michelin Guide for another year.
Toni’s approach to cooking is a testament to his passion for blending the essence of traditional Catalan cuisine with contemporary touches, creating dishes that are true works of gastronomic art. Educated at the Arnadi Hoffman Hospitality School in Barcelona, and with experience in internationally renowned kitchens such as Ferran Adrià’s El Bulli, Santi Santamaria’s El Racó de Can Fabes, as well as with Jean Luch Figueras (Jean Luch) and Olivier Roellinger (Les Maisons de Bricourt), Toni brings this wealth of experience directly to our kitchen.
Toni Gordillo, a standard-bearer of culinary innovation between tradition and modernity, continues to accumulate successes for our cuisine.
El Hogar Gallego, located in Calella (Barcelona), opened its doors in 1977. Since then, three generations have passed through its kitchen. Toni Gordillo Bernárdez, son of Antonio Gordillo Lavado, maintains a perfect balance between the market cuisine of his father and the innovation that his training and stays in some of the country’s finest restaurants bring. This long career and esteem for excellence are what satisfy our loyal diners and endorse the multiple recognitions.
