Restaurant Martin Berasategui

At the age of 14, Berasategui began to work in his parent's restaurant, Bodegón Alejandro. When Berasategui began his culinary career, there were no Michelin star restaurants in the Basque Country. He was sent to France to train as a pastry chef when he was 17. At the age of 20 he took over his parent's restaurant, and earned his first Michelin star there by the age of 25.
Berasategui opened his eponymous restaurant in Lasarte-Oria, San Sebastián in 1993. It was awarded a third Michelin star in the 2001 Michelin Guide. The restaurant was voted 29th best restaurant in the world by Restaurant (magazine) in both 2008 and 2011, the highest the restaurant has appeared on the list.
As of 2013, he holds more Michelin stars than any other Spanish chef. In addition to his three at Restaurante Martín Berasategui, he holds two at Restaraunte Lasarte in Barcelona and one in Tenerife. He gained the sixth star after his restaurant M.B. in Abama Gold and Spa resort in Tenerife was given a star in the 2010 guide. In addition to his three Michelin starred restaurants, he owns a further six around the world including two in the Dominican Republic, one in Mexico and is opening a further restaurant in Costa Rica in 2014.
It was announced in 2013 that the François Rabelais University will be awarding an honorary doctorate to Berasategui in culinary studies. It is the first time that the university has awarded honorary doctorates to chefs, with Mikuni Kiyomi, Philippe Rochat and Pierre Wynants also receiving the awards.
