Natural, locally sourced ingredients. A mantra we've repeated to ourselves since the project's inception, in our commitment to bringing the best of our land as far as possible. It would be impossible to achieve this without our suppliers, who provide us with the finest products available. They are ideal partners for bringing the paella ritual to every corner of the planet. Unbeatable allies for offering a complete, high-quality, and guaranteed experience. And many of them are also good friends.

We feel fortunate and proud to work with such trusted suppliers. That's why, unlike others who at best indicate the origin of their ingredients in small print, we want to take this opportunity to present them in capital letters.

We begin with the ingredients common to all paellas, those that are sometimes mistakenly called "generic":

Natural sea salt from Santa Pola. Salt straight from the centuries-old salt flats. from this coastal town, specialist in gourmet natural salts.

Novelda PaprikaThis paprika, from the Vega Baja del Segura region, has the ideal smoky aroma to finish the tomato sofrito without contaminating the flavor.

We now turn to the 'noble' ingredients, those that undeniably impact the flavors, guided by the privileged location of our paella workshop in Dénia:

Mantis shrimp, crabs, cuttlefish and prawns, with all the marine flavor offered by the Dénia fish market, thanks to DENIPEIX.

On the meat side, chicken and rabbit from CARNES PARE PERE of Ondara.

VERDURAS ALABAU is our partner when it comes to selecting the best first-quality Perona beans and garrofó beans for Valencian paella, and for vegetable paellas, they advise us on finding the best examples of each. season.

Here we wanted to present the list of travel companions, but we will go into detail about them all calmly, thoroughly and in depth, as those with whom we share a passion for things done well deserve.
