She embarked on her career in haute cuisine in 2018 at the restaurant Atelier Etxanobe* (Bilbao). After spending time training under Fernando Canales and Mikel Poblaci\u00f3n, she worked alongside her father from 2019 to 2020 as a chef at the restaurant V\u00edctor Guti\u00e9rrez* (Salamanca). However, in 2020, she decided to venture out of her comfort zone and traveled to the south of Spain to gain further experience as a chef at the restaurant Noor*** (C\u00f3rdoba). From there, she took an international leap to become sous-chef at the Ambassador Hotel, working alongside chef Romain Fornell in Zermatt (Switzerland) between 2020 and 2021. Eager to return to Spain, she then worked as sous-chef at the restaurant Deesa** by Quique Dacosta***, at the Mandarin Oriental Ritz Hotel *****GL (Madrid), from 2022 to 2023. After this experience, she returned home, first as sous-chef at the restaurant Taller Arzuaga* located in Bodegas Arzuaga &#8211; Navarro (Quintanilla de On\u00e9simo &#8211; Valladolid), before, finally, in 2024, joining once again the restaurant V\u00edctor Guti\u00e9rrez* (Salamanca), this time as head chef, where she continues to work today.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-40942 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/parrilla-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"861\" height=\"574\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/parrilla-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/parrilla-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/parrilla-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/parrilla-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 861px) 100vw, 861px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Paula&#8217;s approach follows in the footsteps of her father&#8217;s cuisine, the only Peruvian chef with a Michelin Star in Spain, creating dishes with a Spanish soul and a Peruvian heart, fusing Peruvian ingredients with different flavors from around the world, including one of her great passions, game.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-40924 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/HERMANAS-GUTIERREZ-1-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"860\" height=\"573\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/HERMANAS-GUTIERREZ-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/HERMANAS-GUTIERREZ-1-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/HERMANAS-GUTIERREZ-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/HERMANAS-GUTIERREZ-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 860px) 100vw, 860px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At the winery, Andrea, Paula&#8217;s younger sister and a trained sommelier, is responsible for managing and selecting the wines.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-40936 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/familia-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"864\" height=\"576\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/familia-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/familia-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/familia-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/09\/familia-PAULA-GUTIERREZ-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 864px) 100vw, 864px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Together, the two sisters and their father form the core of this generational project united by this unique family business in the heart of Salamanca.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-39595 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CORAZON-1-300x200.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"869\" height=\"579\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CORAZON-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CORAZON-1-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CORAZON-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/balfego.com\/app\/uploads\/2024\/07\/CORAZON-1.jpeg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 869px) 100vw, 869px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>From an early age, Paula has seen her father work with <strong>Balfeg\u00f3 Red Tuna<\/strong>.
