“Through his company San Sebastian Food, Jon Warren has helped put San Sebastian on the gastronomic map.” said Andoni, who presented the award at the closing stages of the annual dinner. “It can be easily said, but such actions take a lot of time, a lot of work and of course a lot of talent.”

Jon was delighted to accept the award and gave a short speech, thanking the Glutton Club and dedicating the award to his wife, Nicole, for her long suffering support of his projects and her help over the six years he has lived in the Basque Country.

Other awards were presented including a personal award to one of Jons close friends Marti Kilpatrick for her blog and continued support of gastronomic projects in the city.

The Glutton Club is a society focused in enjoying and learning about gastronomy and culture. In 2012, they opened a pop up bakery on the River Urumea and organise year round culinary and cultural events and concerts. To read more about the award or the Glutton Club, click here.
