A little bit about what we cooked and why at the World Paella Day Cup.
01/10/2026
Where to begin? Two competitions, one week apart, the first ever team to reach the finals at both the International Concours of Paella Valenciana in Sueca and the World Paella Cup in the same year, what a privilege and whirlwind! Just a few pics from the contest in Sueca, 40 chefs, 30 Spanish, all professionals, cooked over fire to the traditional Valencian recipe using chicken, rabbit and beans. Searing heat, billowing smoke and intense scrutiny from a discerning local audience, an unforgettable experience made all the more special by having my daughter Sophie at my side in both competitions.
