Bancamiga and Chef Santiago Fernández Saín Bring Unique Culinary Proposal to Caracas

Caracas is buzzing with culinary excitement as renowned Venezuelan chef Santiago Fernández Saín graces the capital with his presence, courtesy of Bancamiga. Fernández Saín, celebrated for his two Michelin-starred restaurant Maz in Tokyo, is offering a unique gastronomic experience to a select group of Bancamiga clients, showcasing a fusion of his Latin American heritage and the sophisticated techniques of international haute cuisine.

For Fernández Saín, this visit is more than just a culinary event; it's a homecoming. After four years honing his craft in Japan, he expresses a deep-seated need to reconnect with his roots and share his acquired knowledge with his compatriots. His journey, from growing up in Caracas to mastering his art in Europe and Asia, exemplifies the global reach of Venezuelan talent.

Para mí tiene mucho sentido volver a Venezuela. Ya llevo cuatro años cocinando en Japón y, aunque allá he logrado mucho, uno siempre regresa a sus raíces. Era fundamental presentar una propuesta que integrara lo aprendido en tierras niponas con la base de mi trayectoria en Perú y España

Bancamiga's initiative to bring such distinguished talent back to Venezuela is a significant move, bridging the gap between expatriate success and local appreciation. It allows Venezuelans to experience world-class cuisine without the need for international travel, fostering a sense of national pride and culinary development. This event underscores the bank's commitment to supporting and celebrating Venezuelan excellence on both a national and international stage, offering a taste of global gastronomy right here at home.

Hay muchísimos cocineros venezolanos haciendo cosas increíbles en el mundo; que se respalden estas propuestas y se traigan al país es vital para que la gente pueda probarlas sin tener que viajar hasta Japón
