In the Restaurant by Christoph Ribbat
The deliciously cosmopolitan story of the restaurant from eighteenth-century Paris to El Bulli
I imagined that this would be a book that opened new avenues into the study of "restauracion"What I read surpassed that by far. Where I expected a wrought and dense text, I found a playful story, most entertaining, and wonderfully documented, about the history and the anecdotes around restaurants -- Ferran Adria Fascinating, multi-layered, audacious and unique. This book somehow manages to join the dots and connect all restaurants, past and present, in a tale that mixes fact and fancy so compellingly that I read it in a single sitting Russell Norman, author of 'Polpo'
