The story
Ababol sits at Calderón de la Barca 14 in Albacete, a contemporary restaurant that holds a Michelin star for 2026. The kitchen draws on Manchegan tradition, using local produce and whatever the season offers.
Chef Juan Monteagudo leads the kitchen, which describes its approach as Manchegan cooking shaped by territory and season. The restaurant also promotes sustainable practices, and the Green Guide awarded it three radishes in 2026.
Press coverage has described the recipes as tasting of the countryside, and the croquette has drawn attention in regional and national papers. The website also presents a wine cellar with its own selection, so guests can pair dishes with bottles from the house list.
