That FIERRO receives these two Suns and that La Oficina has been recommended in less than a year, and Maipi last year, makes us deeply happy.

In 2024, Carito Louren\u00e7o and Germ\u00e1n Carrizo took over this historic Val\u00e8ncia bar, with more than 40 years of history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As the Repsol Guide notes, Maipi continues a four-decade legacy, now in the hands of Carito and Germ\u00e1n: one of the busiest bars in the city, a temple of good produce serving tapas, stews and grilled meats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maipi\u2019s recommendation (2025) and La Oficina\u2019s entry (2026) thus form a coherent constellation with FIERRO: three different projects, FIERRO, Maipi and La Oficina de Carito y Germ\u00e1n, united by the same vision of craft, produce, hospitality and territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Val\u00e8ncia en el mapa nacional<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FIERRO being the only restaurant in the entire Region of Valencia to earn two Suns in 2026 is news that goes beyond the restaurant itself. It speaks of Val\u00e8ncia\u2019s gastronomic moment and of the sustained work of teams able to build projects with national and international reach from the neighbourhood, the dining room and the kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FIERRO extends until April the three menus created to celebrate its tenth anniversary. Three journeys \u201410 A\u00d1OS DE FIERRO, MEMORIA and LOS A\u00d1OS, also with a vegetarian alternative\u2014 that condense the identity of the house: memory, craft and a contemporary take on its most emblematic dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>SOBRE FIERRO<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Founded in Valencia in 2015, FIERRO is a small, exclusive restaurant of 57 m\u00b2 seating 18 guests that offers an immersive journey. Located in Val\u00e8ncia\u2019s vibrant Ruzafa neighbourhood, FIERRO is a symbol of hospitality and cultural openness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At FIERRO, Mediterranean cuisine is raised to a level of contemporary excellence. It holds a MICHELIN Star, a Repsol Sun, #3 in the MACARFI Guide and 5 Radishes in We\u2019re Smart Green Guide, recognitions that highlight its all-round quality. It has recently received a DISCOVERY AWARD from We\u2019re Smart Green Guide, ranked #29 on the world list and been selected by 50 Best Discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2026 Repsol Guide Suns Gala, held on Monday 16 February at &#8230; <a title=\"FIERRO receives two Repsol Suns, the only restaurant in the Region of Valencia to do so in 2026\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/fierro-receives-two-repsol-suns-the-only-restaurant-in-the-region-of-valencia-to-do-so-in-2026\/\" aria-label=\"More on FIERRO receives two Repsol Suns, the only restaurant in the Region of Valencia to do so in 2026\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6003,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"acf":{"photo_gallery":{"galeria":[[]]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6996"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6996\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6997,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6996\/revisions\/6997"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6003"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/valenciapremium.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
