Carito is a creative head and soul. With the aim of generating a new culture of Mediterranean cuisine, he draws from his tasty Latin roots, the traditions of his native Cordoba and the diverse pantry of Valencian gastronomy. Two perspectives that contrast and flow together when designing each menu.
Carito fuses the frontiers of sweet and savory; it combines treasured flavors with avant-garde techniques and takes each product to its maximum expression.

The construction of a new taste memory of the future is the leitmotiv of FIERRO, where the creative and visionary vision of Carito and Germán is reflected in every moment of the restaurant.
