"Eduardo Valle Lobo spent almost eight years cooking at the Michelin-starred Northern Italian restaurant Frasca Food and Wine in Boulder, first as executive chef and then as culinary director. Now he's opening his first solo venture, Casa Juani, with his wife and fellow chef Kelly Jeun. He'll serve the food of his native Spain with tapas centered around seafood and a live-edge chef's table."
"Casa Juani, named after Lobo's mother, is a love letter to his childhood in Madrid. Lobo is in his element in the kitchen, cooking seafood-driven tapas like the tortillitas de gamba cristal, rice and noodle dishes like fideua de cangrejo, toasted vermicelli with Dungeness crab and padrón pepper served in the shell, and large plates like a churrasco with mojo sauce and wrinkled potatoes."
Eduardo Valle Lobo, after nearly eight years at Frasca Food and Wine, is opening his first solo restaurant, Casa Juani, with wife and chef Kelly Jeun in Boulder this February. Casa Juani will emphasize seafood-centered Spanish tapas and a live-edge chef’s table, featuring dishes such as tortillitas de gamba cristal, fideua de cangrejo, toasted vermicelli with Dungeness crab and padrón pepper, and larger plates like churrasco with mojo and wrinkled potatoes. The restaurant is named for Lobo’s mother, Juani, whom he seeks to honor. The season’s most anticipated winter openings also include a British seafood pub in New York, a Sicilian spot linked to a beloved Detroit restaurant, and a more casual Philadelphia follow-up to Her Place Supper Club and My Loup. The openings are organized alphabetically by city and dates may change.
