Camila Loew, SOBREMESA Founder

Sobremesa was founded in late 2013, when Camila moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, California from Barcelona. Camila’s desire to help Americans become familiar with everything she knew about one of the world’s foremost cuisines was met by a growing demand for Spanish regional cuisines.

Back in Barcelona five years later, Sobremesa went on to offer its services to travelers in Barcelona and other parts of Spain, the Mediterranean, and the world.

The many regional cuisines which conform Spanish and Mediterranean cuisines are based on a few tenets, which explain its current worldwide appreciation, in a time in which we are rethinking our relationship to cooking and food. Generous amount of olive oil; a focus on fresh, seasonal market ingredients; and plenty of time devoted to sitting down communally at the table to share lovingly prepared meals.
