The Columbia Restaurant Spanish Cookbook by Adela Hernandez Gonzmart
In this narrated cookbook, Adela Hernandez Gonzmart and Ferdie Pacheco memorialize their passion for the Columbia, America's largest Spanish restaurant and Florida's oldest restaurant. This special 115th anniversary edition of the The Columbia Restaurant Spanish Cookbook features a foreword by Andrea Gonzmart Williams, granddaughter of Adela.
Adela Hernandez Gonzmart (1920–2001) was born two blocks from the Columbia Restaurant. After graduating from the Juilliard School of Music, she toured the United States and Cuba as a concert pianist. After her marriage to violinist Cesar Gonzmart, she performed with such entertainers as Liberace, Ernesto Lecuona, and Amparo Hurb. She was instrumental in forming the Tampa Symphony Orchestra and in her lifetime received countless honors from organizations in the Tampa community.
