With a Michelin star, Canfranc Express is a gastronomic restaurant at Canfranc Estación, a Royal Hideaway Hotel, located in an old restored train carriage belonging to Canfranc International Station. Under the direction of Chef Eduardo Salanova and Restaurant Manager Ana Acín, the restaurant's main aim is to recover the culinary heritage of Aragon and arouse emotions through the flavours, textures and typical products of the region, using avant-garde techniques while preserving the essence of the finest local cuisine. An exclusive gastronomic journey with Canfranc as its starting point.
The culinary concept of the Canfranc Express restaurant is the work of Chef Eduardo Salanova and Restaurant Manager Ana Acín, both of whom have won prestigious awards throughout their careers. Together they form one of the most important tandems in Spanish cuisine, whose proposal is based on the adaptation of traditional Aragonese recipes to haute cuisine.
Canfranc Express Restaurant does not allow children under 14 years of age.
Chef
Originally from Canfranc, he discovered professional cooking at the age of 16, but it was during his early years working in haute cuisine restaurants that he acquired his expertise in the kitchen. He was part of the kitchen team at Echaurren (Ezcaray) the year the restaurant received its second Michelin star. A year later, he joined the team at Ángel León's Aponiente – three Michelin stars – coinciding with the restaurant's second award.
In addition to leading the kitchen at Canfranc Express, he is currently in charge of the emblematic Venta del Sotón, in the Aragonese foothills of the Pyrenees, with his business partner Ana Acín. In 2018, they opened the restaurant Espacio N, which offers creative cuisine combined with traditional recipes, restoring Aragonese cuisine to its rightful place. Just a year and a half after opening, Espacio N received its first Michelin star.
Restaurant Manager
Ana Acín has always had a passion for gastronomy, and her work reflects her love for the dining room, her professionalism and care in serving and treating guests, 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, have taken on the challenge of combining their expertise in the kitchen with their unique and impeccable understanding of service in the dining room.
Passionate about challenges and a lover of good cuisine, her career has always been marked by a firm commitment to the products of Alto Aragón and the importance of pairing in the gastronomic experiences she creates, inviting guests to travel the world through her wines. Currently, Ana Acín combines her work as restaurant manager at Canfranc Express with her activities at Espacio N and Venta del Sotón.
