Do You Know the Greatest Chefs in the World?

Quique Dacosta, Spain

Dacosta got his start while working as a dishwasher in a pizza place. From there, his interest in food blossomed into a job at a restaurant called El Poblet at 17. He continued to work there for his entire career, through name changes, menu changes, management changes, all the way until he was offered the restaurant to call his own. He earned three Michelin stars, despite being a poor, self-taught man with no connections.
