Born in Madrid and trained by the legendary Ferran Adria of El Bulli, Omar arrived in the UK in 2008 to take over the reins at El Pirata Detapas in West London, quickly establishing it as one of London’s best tapas restaurants and winning rave reviews. Whilst there, he was featured on Channel 4’s ‘Ramsay’s Best Restaurant’, and Omar’s reputation as the ‘Antonio Banderas of cooking’ was born.

Before starting out on his own, Omar decided to put Tapas on the map, literally daubing a T for Tapas on the map of England, before setting out on his motorbike for two weeks, cooking for everyone he met along the way.

The trip was a great success, causing nothing short of a sensation back in Spain, where they called him a ‘crusader for Spanish food and culture’. In the UK, the trip showed Omar that people around the country loved his simple and easy style of Spanish cooking and he came back with a new determination to keep bringing Tapas to the people.

In 2010 he opened his first Tapas Revolution at Westfield Shepherd’s Bush to rave reviews, with the Guardian’s John Lanchester saying ‘I can’t recommend Tapas Revolution highly enough … ideal for real tapas-type eating’ and Tom Barker Bowles describing it as ‘a step above’ in the Mail on Sunday.

As well as running a successful business, Omar has won several awards and maintained a career as a successful TV chef; In 2010 he was shortlisted for the OFM Young Chef of the Year awards, shortly before opening his first Tapas Revolution, won Caterer and Hotelkeeper’s Acorn Award for ‘Rising Star’ in 2012 and was British Travel & Hospitality Hall of Fame Young Entrepreneur Award in 2015. His illustrious career has been accompanied by several appearances on popular television, including Sunday Brunch, The One Show, This Morning and Masterchef. ...more
