At a private residence, this 60th birthday celebration read like a feature in a culinary magazine. Cocktail hour was a true farm-to-table showcase, with chefs preparing made-to-order bites before guests’ eyes: Cheeses paired with golden olive oils, a glistening tuna carving station, and the irresistible theater of hand-sliced jamón ibérico.
Once seated, Michelin-starred chef Luis Roger and the team from BCN continued the journey with a menu that celebrated Spanish tradition, serving saffron-laced paella, perfectly toasted fideuà, and fresh, seasonal plates. Gin and tonics were poured with botanical precision, filling the air with their fragrant notes.
The décor echoed the flavors of Spain, with clusters of ripe tomatoes and bottles of olive oil alongside hundreds of orange tulips. The evening began with the soft strum of Spanish guitar and ended with the high-energy duel of two pianos, transforming the home into a concert hall and keeping guests singing well past the final course.
