Release: June, 2025

Synopsis: Today, Casa Marcial shines with three Michelin stars. But beyond the symbol, what really shines is the story of a family that has turned rootedness into a form of resistance and emotion into a creative tool. This issue captures that exact moment: the moment of reaching the peak and the accompanying vertigo that comes with the fulfilment of a dream.

Alongside Nacho, Sandra, Chus and Esther Manzano, there is also Álvaro Salazar, who from Voro (Mallorca), with two Michelin stars and the unanimous respect of an entire sector, is constructing a silent, precise and exciting work. His work represents that natural avant-garde that does not seek impact, but coherence.

The beauty of precision. Begoña Rodrigo, from La Salita in Valencia, reminds us that haute cuisine can also have the soul of a neighbourhood, of a home, of a struggle. Her cuisine is made of memories and character, of vindication and tenderness. A universe of its own, full of nuances and truth.

And from Madrid, Bascoat, with its Basque outlook and its way of reinterpreting recipes with contemporary elegance, completes an issue that is exciting for its diversity, its maturity and its narrative. 

This is a special issue. Because it is not just about cooking, but about journeys. Because it is not just about dishes, but about convictions. Because it is not just about documenting the present, but about already belonging to the future. For its protagonists. For its emotional charge. For the feeling that, in some way, everything we have learnt over the years is condensed here... this Apicius is special.
