About the authors:
Oriol Castro (Barcelona, 1974), Eduard Xatruch (Vila-seca, 1981) and Mateu Casañas (Roses, 1977) are now legends of the fine-dining experience. At their restaurant Disfrutar, they create 80 new dishes every year on average; they work at the highest level of creativity, just as they were taught at elBulli, where they were part of the revolution in avant-garde cuisine. At Compartir, their first joint adventure, they explore Mediterranean and festive cooking at their original location in Cadaqués and now in Barcelona. The great impact of their innovations has earned them global recognition from the entire sector and many awards and acknowledgements.
