Can Fabes

Santi Santamaria is from a long line of devoted Catalan farmers and although he chose a different profession, far from leaving his roots behind, Santi has continued to honour the land he adores. He and his wife çngels have been enjoying success in their own establishment for more than a quarter of a century. Faithful to local produce, methods and growers, he also embraces ingredients and techniques from around the world
Santi Santamaria is from a long line of devoted Catalan farmers and although he chose a different profession, far from leaving his roots behind, Santi has continued to honour the land he adores. He and his wife çngels have been enjoying success in their own establishment for more than a quarter of a century. Faithful to local produce, methods and growers, he also embraces ingredients and techniques from around the world. Via his philosophy on the equal importance of time past, present and future, he creates an ongoing zeitgeist in food and environment. Parts of the farmhouse venue have been restored, while others adopt a modern design, with two dining rooms representing both the old and the contemporary. There's one important motive - to provide guests with a formidable dining experience. And the common denominator bringing it all together is great food from the fat of the land.
