Pedro Sánchez | Bagá* Jaén, Spain
Biography
Pedro Sánchez is chef and owner of Bagá, the restaurant he opened in 2017 in the centre of Jaén after 16 years at the helm of Casa Antonio. His project was born with the aim of developing a cuisine closely connected to his home region and championing the produce and gastronomic identity of Jaén. At Bagá, he has created a personal approach based on highly precise ingredient selection and preparations of great intensity of flavour.His cuisine is based on local and seasonal produce, with particular attention to olive oil and raw materials connected to Jaén and Andalusia. He generally works with few elements in each preparation, seeking to concentrate flavour and give produce the leading role. This approach is also reflected in a tasting menu that changes frequently and allows him to develop new combinations based on the ingredients available.
Bagá currently holds one Michelin star and three Soles Repsol. In 2026, Pedro Sánchez received the Premio Nacional de Gastronomía for Best Chef, recognising a career developed from Jaén and a cuisine that has helped give greater visibility to the province's gastronomy.
