Photographs for Jesús González, the chef who pioneered the updating of Canarian cuisine

Jesús González is one of the most prestigious Canarian chefs and is considered a pioneer in updating Canarian cuisine (Manuel Iglesias Award 2013), adapting traditional styles to new techniques and elaborations, but always with a careful respect for the flavours and identity of the ingredients he uses. He was chef and owner of the restaurant El Duende in Los Realejos, where he blazed a trail that revolutionised the gastronomy of the Canary Islands. He is currently head chef at the Hotel Las Madrigueras (Two Suns, Repsol Guide), in Playa de las Américas (Tenerife) since 2013.
González is committed to a cuisine with essentially island flavours and aromas, exploring the heritage of techniques and raw materials of the islands to create a menu where authenticity, balance and modernity go hand in hand.

Gastronomic photographs for chef Jesús González

In this post we show you some of the gastronomic photographs taken for chef Jesús González.
In the words of Chef González: “In the Canary Islands, we have to work on what makes us unique and different, we have products that identify us. It is important that visitors realise that they are in the Canary Islands through what they taste on a plate”.

Photographic technique in gastronomy images

Through this type of images we seek to capture the “flavour”, colour, shape and texture of the food. In gastronomic photography, the choice of lighting and the composition of the dish play an essential role.
In addition, this type of photography requires careful editing to achieve an optimal final result.
