In this episode of Deia Unpacked we talk to the dynamic couple Sebastian Pasch (chef) and Patricia, owner/operators of the ever popular Deia institution, Restaurante Sebastian. It's a love story that carries just the right amount of sugar, spice, and hard work, to create a restaurant and food culture that has endured for over 25 years, in a town of sophisticated palettes. It's a pleasure to hear these two banter about their experiences in Deia, how they met, and how their deep connection created such a trusted, and incredible dining experience for so many over the years. Their story is a true Deia Rom/Com.
