    ABOUT CASTILLA |

    Castilla showcases that talent of female chef and founder, Clara Gutierez Carroll. Clara grew up in Valladolid in the region of Castilla in central Spain, an area with numerous bodegas in century-old caves where tablas (boards with 10-12 tapas) are served. She grew up on a farm and in a restaurant family. Her immediate family had a pig and grain farm and she helped with harvesting to cooking, butchering to curing. Her uncle owns a vineyard/vintner in the highly regarded Ribera del Duero region called Roturas. Keen on having a place to call her own, Clara opened Castilla in Bellevue Square where she has a large space with two kitchens and a woodburning/gas oven. She opened Castilla in November of 2019.
