A Day at elBulli (English)

Capturing just one day of Ferran Adria's spectacular restaurant, elBulli, this enormous coffee table book is more of a chronicle and homage than cookbook. Considered one of the leaders of molecular gastronomy, Adria's wildly inventive, ethereal creations are now part of the modern gourmet canon. With over 1,000 photographs, those who couldn't finagle a reservation (the restaurant takes just 8,000 per season, with well over two million yearly requests) can experience a 30-course meal visually, along with how it is dreamt up and actually made. Salt Air, Pine Nut Marshmallows, and Rose-scented Mozzarella are just three examples of the magic within this magnum opus. minimize
