Because Ruiz, who apart from being a great cook is an intelligent person, did not focus on transferring a cookbook from Mexico to Spain but on transfer its essence, its smells and flavors, its culture and its processes , incorporating them into the local product. And, of course, he won.
During these years it has remained in constant movement. He has created the Mezcal Lab on the top floor of the restaurant Y Cascabel Hall at Goya's Gourmet Experience . He has traveled through Mexico in search of products and seeds to bring back the soul of his kitchen. up to developed a farm in Segovia where he successfully cultivates hitherto unpublished species here that he collects on his travels.
