"MICHELIN NO ES PERFECTO" Txaber, @elcocinerofiel nos visita en La Sobremesa - LSdMO #15

In this episode of Mask Off's After-Dinner Conversation, we talk with Txaber, one of Spain's most veteran food content creators, with almost 20 years of experience creating videos online. We discuss how YouTube and social media have changed, whether paying more really means eating better, the rise of specialty coffee, the Michelin-starred world, franchises, McDonald's, wine, local businesses, and many of the myths surrounding modern gastronomy. We also review some of the best restaurants he's tried, debate the decline in quality when brands grow too large, and analyze why the restaurant experience goes far beyond the food. If you enjoy food, business, social media, or simply a good, unfiltered conversation, this episode is for you.
