Chef Nieves Barragán Mohacho, in partnership with JKS Restaurants, will welcome guests to Legado in Shoreditch, London this summer, her second opening following the Michelin-starred Sabor in 2018.
Legado – meaning ‘legacy’ – is a nod to Nieves’ personal journey and a celebration of Spain’s diverse regional food cultures.
Moving beyond the familiar, Legado will explore ingredients, dishes and dining traditions from across the country, drawing inspiration from the lively tabancos of Cádiz and Jerez, the whole-animal cookery of Castilla y León’s grand asadors, the seafood-rich restaurants along Galicia’s coastline, and the hearty stews of Asturias.
Larger than any project to date for Nieves, the space and design granted in Legado will provide her and her team an environment for further research and development and a platform for her continually evolving creativity.
Speaking of the opening, Chef Nieves Barragán Mohacho said: “It has always been my greatest pleasure to cook food from my country, but there are still many more stories to tell about the dishes and flavours that I haven’t found outside of Spain. Legado is a kind of playground for me, and I am excited to share my memories and discoveries of food and drinks – I hope everyone will enjoy.”
