Chef Antonio (Toni) Romero — trained at elBulli (2009), Arzak, Akelarre, and Anne-Sophie Pic's three-Michelin-starred kitchen Opened 2012; Romero took sole ownership a few years later The name 'Suculent' is a play on the Catalan idiom 'sucar lent' — slow-dipping bread in sauce is built into the experience
