Son of a Catalan father and a Castilian mother, in a family of republican ideas repressed by Franco\u2019s regime (father shot in 1936, uncle exiled). He spent the Spanish Civil War and the post-war period in Burgos.<\/p>\n<p>The death of his mother leaves him and his brother as orphans.<\/p>\n<p>They are placed in hospices where they have a hard childhood. At the age of 12 he starts working as an apprentice in a furrier\u2019s factory and later in restaurants in Palencia, Valencia and Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>By chance, he finds his uncle who worked in Barcelona, who will help him to work as an apprentice in the important hospitality firm \u201cEstablecimientos Sala S.A.\u201d, owner of the Baviera, the Granja Royal, the Canaletes, the Navarra, the Mil\u00e1n, the Oriente, the Baviera in Madrid&#8230; He will go through all their establishments and all the positions: dishwasher, cook\u2019s assistant, waiter, ma\u00eetre, head waiter, head buyer and finally as director. Eager to run his own business, he begins his entrepreneurial phase by opening L\u2019Atl\u00e0ntida 1 in 1967 in the Catalan town of Vilassar de Mar. Then follows the rental of the Doyen Restaurant, also in Vilassar de Mar. Years earlier, he had married Ascensi\u00f3n L\u00f3pez, with whom he had two children. In 1975 he opens his second restaurant, L\u2019Atl\u00e0ntida 2, with pizza as the star dish, the only one of its kind in the Maresme region.<\/p>\n<p>Later, in 1990, he opens La Botiga de L\u2019Atl\u00e0ntida, a take-away food establishment with charcuterie and wine cellar. In 2006 he opens a new establishment with innovative market cuisine with a terrace and menus for special events, also in Vilassar de Mar. In 2017 his children opened a new successful store in the Matar\u00f3 Parc shopping centre. Throughout these years, the Ferrer family\u2019s Atl\u00e0ntida Group has received several awards and recognitions for its gastronomic quality and has become a benchmark restaurant in the Maresme region. Miquel Ferrer Calzada died in 2011.<\/p>\n<p>His children continue his project, these establishments are now called L\u2019Atl\u00e0ntida in Vilassar and also in Matar\u00f3 Parc.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7542,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[154],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.12 -
