      Él y los otros dos fundadores, vinculados al mundo de la publicidad y también valencianos, eran conscientes de que la avalancha de éxito de la paella la estaba desdibujando. “Es uno de los platos más desvirtuados. Una cosa es la paella, y otra, el arroz con cosas”, explica en una terraza del centro de Valencia.
      He and the other two founders, tied to the world of advertising and also Valencian, were aware that paella's avalanche of success was blurring it. "It's one of the most distorted dishes. Paella is one thing, and rice with things is another," he explains at a terrace in downtown Valencia.
