The acclaimed Miami Culinary Institute (MCI) at Miami Dade College (MDC) again welcomed world-renowned Spanish Chef Ferran Adrià, alongside an all-star lineup of international chefs, for the second annual Estrella Damm Gastronomy Congress on Monday, Sept. 26. Adrià rose to fame as the head chef of elBulli, a three-star Michelin restaurant that has been rated No. 1 among the world’s best restaurants for a record five times by Restaurant Magazine. His avant-garde, deconstructionist cuisine changed culinary history. He is the world’s most awarded chef and winner of “Chef of the Decade” in 2010. Chef Adrià is the brand ambassador for the Barcelona-based brewery Estrella Damm. Estrella Damm also donated a $5,000 scholarship to MCI.
