SPAIN. The conference programme for the upcoming Airport Food and Beverage (FAB) + Hospitality Conference & Awards 2025 has gained star power with the addition of Michelin-starred twin chefs Javier and Sergio Torres of Cocina Hermanos Torres.

Hosted by Spanish airports operator Aena, the only global airport food & beverage and hospitality event will take place on 25-26 June in Barcelona, Spain, bringing together senior executives from airports, F&B concessionaires and hospitality service providers, as well as other business partners from around the world.

Owned and organised by The Moodie Davitt Report, the highly anticipated annual event will culminate in the FAB Awards Ceremony during the Gala Dinner on 26 June, with the FAB Superstars winners unveiled earlier during the conference.

Barcelona-born chefs Javier and Sergio Torres spice up the FAB stage with their innovative culinary vision

The Torres brothers will join Avolta CEO Xavier Rossinyol for a compelling discussion, titled From the Kitchen to the Boardroom – An Audience with…, moderated by The Moodie Davitt Report Founder and Chairman Martin Moodie.

Hailing from a culinary family in Barcelona, Javier and Sergio Torres found early inspiration in the kitchen of their grandmother Catalina.

Following formal training, they refined their craft in top Michelin-starred restaurants such as The Reno and Neichel of Barcelona.

Javier enhanced his culinary background by working at various restaurants across Spain and at Philippe Rochat’s acclaimed restaurant in Switzerland, formerly under Fredy Girardet. At the same time, Sergio’s journey took him to France, where he gained experience at Michelin-starred restaurants including Pedro Subijana’s Akelarre, and the Plaza Athénée in Paris.

Their culinary journey took them to São Paulo with the opening of Eñe in 2007, then brought their culinary vision back to Spain with Dos Cielos Barcelona in 2008, securing their first Michelin star in 2010 and a second in 2017.

The brothers expanded their brand by establishing Space Illusion, a creative hub in their grandmother’s former home, and by launching Dos Cielos Madrid within the luxury Gran Hotel Meliá Palacio de los Duques in 2017.

Following the closure of Dos Cielos in Barcelona, the brothers opened Cocina Hermanos Torres in July 2018 in their birthplace. It quickly earned two Michelin stars and three Soles from the Repsol Guide by 2019, later gaining a third Michelin star in 2022 and a green star for sustainability in 2023.

Committed to education and inclusion, the brothers are developing initiatives for young culinary talents and youth with disabilities. Last year, they were ranked 20th in The Best Chef Awards International List.
