The prestigious Academy of Gastronomy of Ibiza and Formentera (AGIF) has announced the 2022 winners in the categories of best chef, best restaurant/establishment, sustainable local product and the award for family tradition.
As for the best establishment, the recognition has gone to the restaurant Sol de cala Saona. “It is an example of how a beachfront establishment can offer quality gastronomy based on traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Dishes based on the freshness of the product and the flavors of the island with a stunning sunset”, highlights the Diario de Ibiza, in statements of the Academy of Gastronomy of Ibiza and Formentera.
On the other hand, the award for family tradition has been for the Tanga restaurant on the beach of Llevant. “It has been open for 45 years on the Levante beach offering local and Mediterranean cuisine. Two generations concerned that their customers enjoy one of the gastronomic paradises of the island,” says the Academy.
Antonio D’Angelo has been awarded as best Chef, (chef of Molo 47). “Antonio develops a fusion cuisine based on Italian and Japanese gastronomy. But he fuses them with dishes from Spanish, Chilean or Mexican recipes”, highlights the Academy.
Terramoll Winery has been recognized in the sustainable local product section. The Academy recalls that “they began their journey in 2000 with the aim of developing a pioneering product in the market, a wine entirely from Formentera, which combines tradition and modernity. They have worked on the recovery of native vineyards, such as Monestrell and Malvasia, bringing new approaches with foreign varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Viognier and Merlot”.
The Academy of Gastronomy of Ibiza and Formentera is a cultural association whose main purpose is to research, promote, disseminate, promote and protect the gastronomic activities of the Pitiusas, and is part of the network of regional and autonomous headquarters framed in the Royal Spanish Academy of Gastronomy.
