Nacho Manzano

Nacho Manzano's passion for cooking started at a young age. He started working in a professional kitchen when he was only 15 years old, at the restaurant Casa Victor in Gijon. When he was 22 he took on the challenge of running his own restaurant, previously owned by his parents, called Casa Marcial in the Asturias, where he gained 2 Michelin stars. Manzano is renowned for his speciality fish dishes and for his modern interpretations of more traditional Spanish dishes. He has travelled extensively giving masterclasses in Spanish cuisine throughout the world and represents Asturias at major international events.
