English with Dane - Real English for Spanish Speakers

Secrets of a Michelin Star Chef (con Coco Montes)

21 Oct 2025

Description

Hoy hablo con mi amigo Coco Montes (@coco.montes), uno de los chefs más talentosos de España y creador de PABÚ, un restaurante que hace poco recibió su primera estrella Michelin 🌟Hablamos sobre el proceso secreto de evaluación de la guía Michelin y si realmente es como lo pintan en las pelis o en los programas de cocina. También sobre por qué ser chef puede ser una experiencia tan solitaria, qué es lo que de verdad separa a un chef con estrella Michelin de una persona normal, y la filosofía de Coco sobre la alta cocina, la hospitalidad y si la industria está fallando a la gente común.Coco isn’t just a great chef — he’s also a perfect example of how having a non-native accent but speaking English at a high level can sound incredible. His comfort with the language and his natural communication style allow him to express his ideas clearly and be himself — which is the whole point. He doesn’t stress about pronunciation or trying to sound “more native.” He speaks calmly, chooses his words carefully, and gets his message across beautifully. I think there’s really something to that.Let me know what you think about this type of episode, and if there’s anything I can do to make it an even richer experience.As always, thanks for watching (or listening) 🙌
