Biography
Early years
Limas trained in Japanese-leaning kitchens before joining the Bambú Group's Barcelona project.
Career
Limas leads the hot-dishes side of the kitchen at 99 Sushi Bar Barcelona, the Bambú Group's first location outside Madrid, in the Sant Gervasi-Galvany neighbourhood. The restaurant features a sushi bar at which David Arauz — disciple of Ricardo Sanz of Kabuki — handles the cold and raw side. The menu spans sushi, sashimi, tempura, black cod, and Japanese Wagyu beef, with ingredients drawn from other cuisines.
Philosophy
Limas's work in the hot kitchen takes the Japanese repertoire and pulls in international product — Wagyu, Mediterranean seafood — keeping the format precise but not orthodox. The dual sushi-bar / open-kitchen format keeps both halves of the menu visible to guests.
