Happy Birthday, Elena! May your day be seasoned with laughter and garnished generously with joy—just like the dishes that earned you the title of World's Best Female Chef in 2012. Your culinary brilliance at Arzak continues to inspire taste buds worldwide; rumor has it even Michelin stars secretly line up for reservations!From innovative Basque creations to unforgettable dining experiences, you've cooked your way into our hearts (and stomachs). Here's wishing another year filled with delicious adventures, awards aplenty—and perhaps fewer kitchen mishaps involving overly enthusiastic sous-chefs.
Cheers to a chef whose talent ages better than fine wine!
