To Gofio what belongs to Gofio

Aida Gonzalez y Safe Cruz, faithful to their commitment to Maximum canarity, once again manage to be awarded by the Michelin guide. A dream that comes true again less than a year after the last gala, with such a personal project, without any economic network behind. A comprehensive effort, supported only by two young people in love with a passion and a land. A titanic work in which illusion has predominated, the effort and the conviction that the cuisine of Canarian houses deserves every possible claim.

After only four months since its opening after changing location, the guide Michelin concede a star to the chef's most personal project Safe Cruz and his partner and room director, Aida Gonzalez: two young talents of new gastronomy who have seen their efforts rewarded by the organization on two occasions during the nine years of the restaurant's life. On this second occasion, These months since they moved to the new premises on Caballero de Gracia Street they have left evidence of the dedication that is rewarded again. An unprecedented merit on the national scene that leads them to be deeply grateful to the Guide and its inspectors., those who praise for the affection they have always shown towards Remembering. According to Aida and Safe: “We only have words of gratitude towards the Guide; Your support during difficult times and your mentorship throughout this time have been key for us., encouraging us to continue. We are happy that the star shines again on our little island, this time stronger than ever.”

Remembering was born in the year 2015, fruit of the need to publicize the diversity of the cuisine of Canarian homes before globalization. It is a project that means much more to both of us., since in Gofio are his memories, your values, their bond with their land and their eternal gratitude towards their mothers, Carmen Rosa and Toñi, who instilled in them a love for cooking and respect for the traditions of a land so deeply unknown and at the same time so visited. Both taught them that success is worthless if it is not from the heart and that the family is also chosen.: a family that makes up the entire restaurant team, of which they are deeply proud.

The new location of Remembering opened this past July, after years of searching for a location that added comfort for both the client and the team and that, In turn, represented them: your individuality, his vision and his concept of a restaurant where proximity prevails, the intimacy and beauty of the islands reflected in the chef's dishes Safe Cruz, destined to become symbols of the new Canarian cuisine. A vision so personal that the Plantea studio knew how to capture and translate it into the design., inspired by the legacy of the Lanzarote artist Cesar Manrique in the Canary Islands. So, In its three menus you can find new creations that coexist with classics from these nine years, like the “roasted” cuttlefish tart with cilantro green mojo made on the day and roe; the white prawn with boiled mojo from their heads and cardamom mojo; or sancocho the other way around, with salted fish cream, pretty potatoes, sweet potatoes and red mojo, among other options that reinterpret the island's recipe book, adapting and fusing tradition and modernity.

Remembering shines today more than ever, rising again to a firmament of which he has always felt part and proving that dreams do come true, although sometimes it costs a little more, and the important thing is not to fall, but get up stronger
