The Soul of Sambal

We don’t just cook; we bring out the true value of our ingredients. Every dish connects the people who grow them with those who enjoy their flavors.

Jaime has dedicated his life to cooking, a passion that began in renowned restaurants in his hometown, including Donostia and Astrid & Gastón. His career later took him to some of the leading kitchens in Medellín and Cartagena, including Carmen and the Sofitel Legend Santa Clara. There, he strengthened his experience and culinary vision, becoming one of Cartagena’s most recognized chefs.

A Gift from Sambal
