"There have been a few meals in my life that really stood out, but one that gave me more confidence to pursue excellence and make a bold statement was a meal, and specifically the first course of that meal, that I had at Mugaritz back in 2006. I was on a trip to France and Spain, travelling by myself searching for inspiration, I decided to go while I was in the area of Guipúzcoa - the meal became a game changer for me."
