After a year of production in Dénia, Rafa Margós has outdone himself once again, unveiling the world's largest wood-fired cooking facility. Two giant paella pans rest on traditional wood fuel, where the Master Paella Chef will prepare 3,000 servings daily using 600 kg of firewood.

We have finally launched what is now the world's largest wood-fired bakeryA unique feat of engineering that incorporates wood combustion into the industrial process of producing broths and natural preparations. With the two largest paella pans ever built, Rafa Margós uniquely extracts all the flavor from the ingredients, which are always natural and locally sourced.

The preparations are exactly the same as always, but now, production is like never before. More than 3,000 daily portions cooked over wood to give them the authentic and traditional flavor of Valencian gastronomy. An invisible but crucial ingredient that holds a special place in the workshop. This woodpile is fed daily by Mauricio, who, along with Rafa Margós, fells, collects, and stores the firewood. The seasonality and availability of wood in the surrounding area determine the type used, combining orange and pine wood.

The experience of firewood.

The workshop is preparing to receive visits from lovers and those curious about the preparation of paellas and other wood-fired recipes, as well as offering tastings and workshops with Master Paella Chef Rafa Margós.

This experience centers on Rafa's dream, our Master Paella Chef, who has once again demonstrated his insatiable exploration, research, and application of primal combustion. A family legacy that understands wood-fired cooking as a responsibility, and for Rafa, it represents a way of life, always at its heart. Now, he also has his own personal temple.
