Our Mission

Savory Roads Catering is dedicated to honoring and sharing the rich culinary traditions of Iberian Cuisine, from the bold flavors of Spain and Portugal to the deep cultural ties that connect these gastronomic heritages with Latin America and beyond. Led by Chef Roger Navas-Balladares and Paul A. Stone, our mission is to celebrate authentic Iberian flavors, innovative cooking techniques, and the timeless art of bringing people together through food.

Drawing inspiration from the kitchens of Andalusian grandmothers, the bustling markets of Lisbon, and the seaside taverns of Galicia, we fuse classical and contemporary Iberian influences to create dishes that tell a story. With a commitment to sustainability, craftsmanship, and culinary exploration, we aim to preserve and elevate traditional Iberian recipes while embracing creative reinterpretations.

Through Savory Roads Catering, we bring the heart of Spain and Portugal to your table—one dish, one sip, one story at a time.
