In mid-June 2019, Seville was paralyzed before a massive link: that of Sergio Ramos and Pilar Rubio.
The soccer player and the presenter were married in the Seville cathedral before almost 500 guests, including singers, bullfighters, television faces and many soccer players.
Among the most anticipated were David and Victoria Beckham, who after the religious celebration also attended the party and the subsequent dinner held at the La Alegría estate, owned by Sergio Ramos in the Sevillian town of Bollullos de la Mitación, for which Dani García prepared a complete menu for all of them.
It was now, three years later and during a visit to the Antena 3 program
El Hormiguero
, when the chef explained how it was to prepare that dinner and revealed some details that caught his attention and how finicky some guests were.
Specifically, the chef from Malaga has said that there were two people who were picky about the menu he had designed: the host of the same program, Pablo Motos, and the British designer Victoria Beckham.
More information
Victoria Beckham has been eating only "grilled fish and steamed vegetables" for 25 years, according to her husband David
García wanted to make it clear that he was "delighted" with the design of the dinner and how everything was managed.
"It was incredible.
I no longer say a wedding.
I think I will never do an event of such a highly personalized level in my life, ”he assured.
However, he also recognized that all that was "a brown": "On a creative level it was a brutal effort."
That is why the change that the former Spice Girl wanted to make with practically everything was shocking.
"It was really weird, it changed the whole menu," she recalled.
"You feel sorry because when you make a menu, there is an effort, not only us, but the bride and groom, the whole team, to make a unique menu...".
But apparently the designer's was “totally different”.
"Only based on vegetables and such," he said.
“I was very curious, I always had coconut water, constantly, and a bowl of mints.
I really have not seen it in my life, ”he recounted surprised.
In addition, he said that on the other side of the table he had hydroalcoholic gel, at a time before the covid-19 pandemic in which the gesture of using it frequently was not common.
"It was complex to give him the menu," he recalled.

This is not the first time that someone has spoken knowingly about the British creator's dietary restrictions.
Last September, during an interview for the
River Cafe Table 4 podcast
, described herself as a "nightmare" as a diner in restaurants, since she does not eat meat, dairy products, oil, sauces or butter.
On the same show, her husband, David, humorously explained that he "unfortunately" is married "to someone who has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years."
He said that Victoria always eats the same thing: grilled fish and steamed vegetables, and that she almost never "deviates from that", something that is not easy for him as a lover of good food that she is.
“The only time she probably shared something that was on my plate was when she was pregnant with Harper and it was the most amazing thing.
She was one of my favorite evenings.
I don't remember what she was, but I know she hasn't eaten it since," she recalled.
On the other hand, during the talk in
El Hormiguero
, Dani García also subtly attacked Motos and laughed.
“After
cooking a
wagyu
burger
with my sauce, which is the best we have, which is brutal, he says: 'Well no, I want the sauce separately, the garnish.'
Like a little boy”, laughed the chef.
“I didn't give you that much for a sack either, right?
In the end, what did I do?
Remove ingredients?” Motos asked.
"It's difficult," said the cook.
“We try to make everyone happy”, to which the presenter assured: “You made me happy”.
