"From the tarmac to the kitchenA passion for the countryside, nature and sustainability are three of the core values at the La Bicicleta restaurant in Hoznayo, in the north of Spain. Occupying a large 18C house in a Cantabrian village with little more than a thousand inhabitants, La Bicicleta showcases a combination of gastronomic influences from regions in which Quintana has spent his formative years. Using a quote from Albert Einstein as his mantra ('Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving'), La Bicicleta has developed into a restaurant that is always looking forward and to the future. This commitment in the kitchen is nothing new. In fact, for him it is a way of life that has taken many years to develop and perfect, to the point where it has given rise to a restaurant that not only creates high-level cuisine, but does so using local and sustainable ingredients." - Guía MICHELIN
