Giulia Gabriele | Fishology* Barcelona, Spain

Biography

Giulia Gabriele is maître and founder of Fishology, the restaurant she established with Riccardo Radice in Barcelona. Born in northern Italy, she entered the hospitality industry through pastry and developed part of her professional career in Berlin and Ancona, where she worked with chef Moreno Cedroni. She subsequently moved to Barcelona, where she worked at Disfrutar.

At Fishology, she heads the front of house and is responsible for service, the wine list and explaining the dishes. Her work also includes the development of beverages and, since the project began, she has researched the production of vermouth and other drinks using marine and terrestrial plants. Together with Radice, she has developed a project centred on seafood and preservation and transformation techniques.

In 2021, Gabriele was a finalist for the Cuiner Award at Gastronomic Forum Barcelona with Fishology, alongside Riccardo Radice. In 2024, the restaurant was awarded its first Michelin star.

Preserving: From Antiquity to the Avant-Garde

Riccardo Radice Fishology* Chef Speaker

Giulia Gabriele Fishology* Maître Speaker

2026-11-03 12:30 2026-11-03 13:15 Europe/Madrid Preserving: From Antiquity to the Avant-Garde Food preservation is one of humanity’s oldest technologies, born out of the strict need for survival. In this presentation, Riccardo and Giulia, the creators of FISHØLOGY (Barcelona), explore the conceptual and technical evolution of marine preservation, from ancestral methods — salting, curing, smoking, marinating and fermentation — to their contemporary application in avant-garde fine dining. Through their approach, known as “sea charcuterie”, Riccardo and Giulia demonstrate how dry ageing and precise control of temperature and humidity not only extend the shelf life of fish, but also radically transform its sensory properties, achieving unprecedented concentrations of flavour and unusual textures. The presentation takes a comprehensive look at the restaurant’s philosophy: an obsessive pursuit of gastronomic excellence combined with a strong environmental commitment. Through the complete use of the product (Zero Waste), the use of locally sourced fish and the revaluation of humble or discarded species, the project proposes a sustainable model for the future of the sea.
