A celebration that was not attended by the wives of Fernando and Carlos Fitz-James Stuart y Solís, nor by the Duke’s brothers, Alfonso, Jacobo, Fernando, Cayetano and Eugenia Martínez de Irujo. The place chosen for said appointment was the exquisite restaurant Tse Yang Villamanga — located near Paseo de la Castellana in Madrid — which belongs to the Group Tse Yang and is considered one of the best Chinese restaurants in the capital.
The Duke is the first of the six children that the beloved had Cayetana of Alba with Luis Martínez de Irujo was born in Lilyin Madrid. And despite celebrating his birthday every year, as he told us at HELLO!, he would prefer “fail to fulfill them and be 74 years old. In any case, it must be taken with resignation, like everything natural and proper in life”. On this occasion, Carlos Fitz-James Stuart and his children have been able to celebrate this day by tasting the delicacies they cook in the aforementioned restaurant, such as steamed sea bass with fine soy sauce, sautéed prawns with spicy sauce or their star dish, duck lacquered in the Peking style.
But that’s not all, because Tse Yang Villamagna’s menu also has several tasting menus that you could have opted for and thus have been able to taste the refined nuances of high-quality Cantonese cuisine, which take you directly to China. The menu highlights the Pekingese menu for 68 euros per person; the Cantonese menu, for 65 euros; or the Tse Yang menu for 88. All of them bring together their best dishes such as lobster mushi, beef fillets with oyster sauce or duck fillets with ginger sauce.
After finishing eating, the Duke left the restaurant first, dressed in a light blue linen shirt and navy pants. Before getting into the car and returning to the Liria Palace, he responded to the congratulations of the reporter from Gtres that awaited his departure: “Thank you, it’s been many years.” Behind him, his two sons, Fernando and Carlos Fitz-James Stuart and Solís. It should be remembered that the aristocrat is happy with the stage he is living and feels like a very proud grandfather — either grandpaas his grandchildren call him — of Rosario and Sofía, daughters of the dukes of Huéscar; and Carlos, the first-born of the counts of Osorno. “I am living it with great enthusiasm. Among other things because I see, once again, the continuity of the House is assured,” he told ¡HOLA!
