A family business since 1920
The Pau-Solà family, that is to say Antoni Pau Comas, Carme Solà Juncà and their children Ramón, Julio, Ana and Neus, is the forth generation to run Els Caçadors de Ribes. The origins of our family business date from 1919. The precedent was the café that some great aunts of Antoni Pau ran at Ribes, specializing in afternoon teas. It was there that our grandfather, Ramon Pau, grew up, and when he married Pilar Comas, a girl from Olot who was a very good cook, it soon developed into a small restaurant.
Subsequently, Grandfather Ramon decided to get into the kitchen to see if he could improve on his wife’s cooking, thus earning himself the label of perfectionist.
This sort of healthy "competition" made the cooking in the restaurant rise up the gastronomic scale, thereby establishing its notable reputation and prestige which has continued since then. The Pau family has also known how to incorporate the right people at the right time. Antonio and Carmen have continued this tradition and, working with three of their children, have guaranteed the new era at Els Caçadors.
