How did a cook, a son of restaurateurs, trained in the Escuela de Hostelería de Cambrils and in the best restaurants on the coast of Catalonia, arrive in Ikea? Jorge Gayán provides the answer: looking for a better quality of life and a balance between his professional and personal life.

The truth is, as Jorge demonstrates, that restauration is much more than cooking, it is also the food service, organization, management… and also a social and environmental responsibility.
Jorge has explored all the aspects of the catering industry and he has found his place as a catering manager in the Swedish multinational company.

The recipe of suckling lamb as well as the Chef bio is an extract of the Golden Book of the Aragonese Cuisine first edition, an International Gourmand World Cookbook Award as the best book in Spanish in the “Local Cuisine” category.
