Víctor Gutiérrez

In a location opposite the Palacio de Congresos de Castilla y León that is relatively easy to find despite being away from the city’s main tourist haunts, Víctor Gutiérrez, a chef who admits to having a 'Spanish soul and a Peruvian heart', showcases cuisine based around three strong principles: ingredients, technique and feeling. Now, ably supported in the kitchen by his daughters (Paula as head chef and Andrea as maître d'), he offers an à la carte service and two tasting menus (Mestizo and Raíces) which reveal his full passion and an unquestionable splash of creativity as he combines the region’s superb ingredients with the flavours of his native Peru (with nods to the Amazon and the Andes, and the occasional Japanese influence). As a result of his continual desire to work with local ingredients, he takes many from his own garden on the outskirts of Salamanca. He also owns a more informal takeaway under the Sudaka brand!
