ANDRÉS FERNANDES LEÓN

Graduated from Ferrandi in 2010, after studying for 4 years, the chef decided to accept Philippe Mille's challenge to regain Michelin stars at “Château les Crayères” in Reims, a mission brilliantly accomplished because the restaurant won 2 stars in 2 years.

After this magnificent adventure, the chef decided to return to Paris and join Alain Ducasse's teams at the prestigious “Restaurant Lasserre”, 2 stars, alongside Christophe Moret in charge of sauces. At the age of 23, in 2013, he was looking for a new challenge and decided to go to Tokyo and join Lionel Beccat's “Esquisse”, a restaurant that was recently awarded 2 Michelin stars that same year.

He then moved to Melbourne where he worked in restaurants such as Vue de Monde 3 Hats (World's50 Best), France Soir and Highline. So many miles traveled to be at the helm of Cascajal.

He was also one of the presidents of the Colombian team at the Bocuse d'Or for Americas 2022 in Santiago de Chile.
