Albert Adria, Spain

Adria started cooking under the wing of his older brother when he was just 16 years old. While fumbling around in the kitchen for a few years, Adria fell in love with the pastry and dessert side of things. Over the years, Adria opened and closed restaurants, worked as a consultant, and took frequent breaks to figure out his next move. But, recently, he opened a Michelin starred restaurant with his brother that is doing particularly well.
