World-renowned chef Joan Roca tells us about his culinary philosophy, solid family ties, and travel inspirations.
BROTHERHOOD TIES Chef Joan Roca and his brothers, patissier Jordi and sommelier Josep, are the creative forces behind the groundbreaking El Celler de Can Roca, No. 2 on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. To express their admiration and his influence, Joan’s peers from the list’s other restaurants also voted to give him the 2016 Chef’s Choice Award. For their experimental work, the Rocas collaborate with culinary academia, and artists from many disciplines. They are also involved in anthropological and biodiversity initiatives. Joan joins the stellar line up of chefs at this year’s Margaret River Gourmet Escape, in Australia.
