SPANISH RESTAURANT
IN KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA
Located in Bukit Damansara, Bocado is a Spanish restaurant specialising in fire-driven cuisine and private dining experiences. At its core is the Josper charcoal oven, where premium cuts and seafood are flame-grilled to bring out deep, smoky flavours, alongside a selection of Spanish tapas inspired by Galicia and coastal Spain.
Designed for connection and celebration, Bocado is a destination for intimate dinners, gatherings, and corporate occasions, where guests come together over bold flavours and warm hospitality.
Helmed by Chef Víctor Santos of Lugo, Galicia, whose experience spans kitchens across Spain from Marbella to Ibiza, Bocado reflects a commitment to authentic Spanish craftsmanship — where fire, heritage, and precision come together in Kuala Lumpur.
OUR CHEF
Víctor Santos, Head Chef at Bocado
At the helm of Bocado, a Spanish restaurant in Kuala Lumpur, is Chef Víctor Hugo Soares Santos, a Spanish chef bringing authentic Spanish cuisine to KL. Hailing from Spain, Chef Víctor leads the kitchen with a deep respect for traditional techniques, flame-grilled cooking, and the rich culinary heritage of his homeland. Now based in Malaysia, he embraces the opportunity to introduce genuine Spanish flavours to Kuala Lumpur’s vibrant dining scene, shaping Bocado into a destination for refined Spanish dining and private dining experiences in KL.
Chef Víctor’s journey began at the age of 12, when he realised that restaurants were places where people gathered to celebrate, connect, and share meaningful moments. Inspired by the happiness he witnessed around the table, he began cooking at home, a passion that evolved into a professional career in Spanish gastronomy. Today, his philosophy continues at Bocado, where every dish — from flame-grilled steaks to traditional Spanish tapas — is crafted to bring the communal spirit of Spain to Kuala Lumpur.
