The Story Behind the Flame
Luxury is not quiet. And greatness never follows recipes.
Chef Luis Conteras is a culinary force, born of fire, forged by cities, and sharpened by taste. He doesn’t just cook. He performs edible alchemy.
Handitasuna [the Basque word for greatness] is the name of his movement and the soul of his cuisine. It’s what you feel in every plate he creates: unexpected, unapologetic, unforgettable.
Born in the Caribbean. Shaped by Spain. Perfected by Fire.
Luis grew up immersed in Caribbean flavor, bold spices, slow fire, and dishes filled with soul. But it was in Miami, between markets and kitchens managed by a spaniard, where he refined his craft, absorbing the rebellious genius of the new Spanish culinary wave.
From his explosive energy to the precise poetry of Handitasuna, his journey has been shaped by flavor, heat, and risk.
Chef Conteras brings exclusive private dining experiences to those who crave more than food. His clients aren’t looking for service. They’re seeking a statement.
He Is Not a Chef. He Is a Culinary Architect.
He designs emotion.
He plates fire.
He disrupts expectations.
From Miami penthouses to Madrid rooftops, from private villas in San Juan to curated tasting rooms in New York, every dish is bold, dramatic, and deeply personal.
This is not luxury for the sake of luxury. This is luxury with teeth. With soul. With greatness.
Greatness is served. Always.
