An ancient gastronomic heritage
Eating at OAXACA is like being transported to Mexico
Joan Bagur
A lover of good cuisine
Chef Joan Bagur arrived in Mexico in the year 2000 with a keen interest in learning the secrets of authentic Mexican cuisine. For this purpose, he engaged with the great traditional cooks, the "mayoras." He traveled throughout the country to explore its markets, culture, traditions, and gastronomy. Additionally, he studied with anthropologists specialised in coastal, desert, tropical, and lacustrine cuisine.
Joan Bagur, a Minorcan cook, says he has lived two lives in one. He feels a passionate and respectful duty to spread the word about authentic Mexican cuisine.
