Xisco Busquets remembers the queues that would form outside the Can Gil bakery to buy buñuelos for Virgin's Day. He was a neighbor of the bakery on Blanquerna Street, so the smell of buñuelos has always been present in his life. He used to watch Juana, the bakery owner, making them over a charcoal stove. In 1987, Joana came to his house and asked him if he would like to make buñuelos to sell with her. They started out in Blanquerna, but soon moved to a two-square-meter shop at 35 Sant Miquel Street. They had antique scales and weighed the buñuelos on the street.
