Mister Adrià himself remarks (in this very same book!) that it is very difficult to put a taste into words.Ībout the food I have obviously very little to say, never having eaten there. I imagine that the point of the book is to give all of us who will never eat at el bulli's a kind of second hand experience of eating at the restaurant. It has a few recipes almost all of them impossible to make at home and if you want to cook his recipes (well actually their recipes as it's more a team effort than anything else) all of their recipes are available elsewhere. It has a lot of pictures, some of them quite nice. I can't for the life of me imagine why anyone would want to buy this book. This is not to say that it isn't interesting and what little there is I enjoyed reading, but it's not much. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought it as it sure takes up a lot of space on a bookshelf whereas it has only enough content to fill a nice article. I was given this book by my brother-in-law.
