After 50 years of life in Mexico City and 17 since the first glowing praise (of the many that came later) from Ferran and Albert Adrià, El Bajío decided last year to open its first branch outside the American continent in Madrid. Two Spaniards, Yolanda Iglesias in the dining room and Josep Rivera in the kitchen - the latter with 18 years of experience in Mexico.

The founder of the first establishment half a century ago, Titita Rodríguez from Veracruz, continues from Mexico in charge of the culinary offering of all the other restaurants.
