Plaza de Infantes gets a Sunny Day thanks to Jose Mota

Published on June 28, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

The restaurant La Plaza de Infantes has been awarded a Solete Repsol, a recognition that comes after a recommendation from comedian José Mota. This award highlights the quality of the establishment and its atmosphere, which provides a boost for the business and an attraction for local tourism. The city gains gastronomic prestige and places itself on the national culinary map.

The algorithm of success: how a joke becomes a business 🍽️

Behind this Solete lies a phenomenon of digital visibility. The recommendation of a public figure like José Mota triggers a viral effect that skyrockets Google searches and online reservations. The restaurant has managed this demand peak with an optimized menu and a trained team. The key is turning the anecdote into a constant flow of customers, using social media and positive reviews to maintain interest beyond the initial moment.

José Mota, the gastronomic guru we didn't know we needed 😂

Who would have told José Mota that, besides making people laugh, he would become a culinary critic. Now, every time the comedian opens his mouth, the owners of La Plaza de Infantes will be attentive in case he drops the name of another dish. The next thing will be seeing him recommend croquettes in the middle of a sketch, or starting a cooking channel. Gastronomic tourism has a new ambassador, and he doesn't wear a chef's hat, but a microphone.
