  • With over ten years of cooking and training in some of the world’s best restaurants, and a childhood spent in kitchens, Perfecto Rocher truly defines his unique name when it comes to the art of cooking. As a child growing up among the orange groves and rice fields of Spain’s sunny Valencia region, Perfecto had an early introduction to the culinary arts by helping in his grandfather’s restaurant and learning traditional family recipes from his mother and grandmother. His quaint hometown of Villalonga is nestled at the base of a rocky mountain, just five minutes from the Costa de Valencia and its white sandy beaches. Armed with an impressive culinary background under his toque, Perfecto is excited to be colaborating with Walter Manzke to present his native foods of Spain.
