The Panamanian chef, Gabriel Grimaldo, will represent Panama at the VI World Tapas Championship 2022, which will be held in Valladolid, Spain, between November 7 and 9 of this year 2022.
“Gabo” as he is also known is the runner-up of the first edition of MasterChef Panama, and on this occasion he was chosen from more than 100 chefs worldwide, to compete in this prestigious gastronomic event.
The tableño will represent Panama with his recipe called Trópico, for which he has been preparing with great enthusiasm and dedication to provide a worthy representation of his country.
The inspiration for the tapa (Trópico) arises as a tribute to the entire Latin and tropical culture in general that Panama has, to that melting pot of races that exists in its national territory, who live daily experimenting and creating new gastronomic proposals taking as a reference all the cultural and ascentral heritage.
This event is organized by the Valladolid City Council, the Tourism Council, the Provincial Association of Hospitality Entrepreneurs, among other organizations and will be taking place in the Millennium Dome of that city.
