Zanti draws its name from one of the restaurant’s founders, Santiago Peláez, whose affectionate nature and passion for pleasing others earned him the nickname “sentimental Santi” from his very large and teasing family. The joys of exploring food, cooking and caring for those around him are among his earliest memories. As he and his brothers grew their family’s hospitality business over the years, across several countries, it seemed inevitable to everyone that Santiago would one day open a restaurant of his own.
