Get to know me better
Passionate chef specializing in Mediterranean cuisine, offering personalized dining experiences inspired by years in Alicante and Seville.
Hi! I’m Chef Carlos Chubb. I’m a professional chef with over 10 years of experience in restaurants in Alicante and Seville, Spain. I trained formally at ESAH in Seville and informally under my father, a Le Cordon Bleu graduate. I also learned a lot from my mother and grandmother—especially when it comes to paellas and other Mediterranean favorites. For me, a great event isn’t just about delicious food; it’s about creating a full, memorable experience. I value open communication and always lead with a “yes” mindset, working closely with each client to bring their vision to life with creativity, warmth, and attention to every detail.
