1928 Restaurant is a gastronomic experience set in a restored historic passenger railroad car from the Canfranc International Station. Celebrating the cultural union of French cuisine and the captivating Aragonese Pyrenees, diners will be taken on an epicurean adventure while reminiscing on past eras' glamorous train journeys. Led by chef Eduardo Salanova, restaurant manager and sommelier Ana Acín and head chef Loic Thoraval, the 1928 kitchen reinterprets French recipes through avant-garde techniques with constant nods to Aragonese cuisine and produce, where classic dishes from both cuisines merge to be savored inside a luxury railroad car.
The 1928 restaurant of the Hotel Canfranc Estación, a Royal Hideaway Hotel pays tribute to the gala banquet that was offered at the inauguration event of the railway station through a culinary journey through Aragonese and French trans-Pyrenean cuisine. Its tasting menus invite the "passenger" to immerse themselves in the gastronomic culture of the mountains surrounding the port of Somport and to savor the exquisiteness of French haute cuisine.
Children under 10 years of age are not allowed to enter the 1928 Restaurant.
Chef
Originally from Canfranc, he became a chef at 16 years of age, but acquired his expertise in the kitchen during his early years working in haute cuisine restaurants. He was part of the kitchen staff of Echaurren (Ezcaray), during the year in which the restaurant obtained its second Michelin star. A year later, he joined the team at Ángel León's Aponiente – three Michelin stars –, coinciding with the acquisition of the restaurant's second award.
In addition to leading the kitchen of Canfranc Express, together with his partner Ana Acín, he is currently in charge of the emblematic Venta del Sotón, in the Aragonese Pyrenees foothills. In 2018, both opened the Espacio N restaurant, where creative cuisine merges with classic recipes that give the Aragonese recipe book the recognition it deserves. In just a year and a half after its opening, Espacio N was awarded its first Michelin star.
Restaurant Manager
Passionate about gastronomy from an early age, Ana Acín reflects her love for the dining room in her work. She emphasizes professionalism, exceptional treatment of guests, and creating unique moments around the table. After fifteen years at the helm of the family restaurant (Venta del Sotón), she and her business partner Eduardo Salanova gave themselves the challenge of combining their culinary expertise with their unique and impeccable understanding of hospitality.
Passionate about challenges and a lover of good food, her career has always been marked by standing firmly behind the products of the Upper Aragon region and emphasizing the importance of pairing in the gastronomic experiences she oversees, inviting diners to travel the world through her wines. Currently, Ana Acín combines her work as Restaurant Manager of Canfranc Express with her work at Espacio N and Venta del Sotón.
