Chef
- Romain Fornell
Synopsis:
The book explores French cuisine, its tradition, its elements and its most emblematic products, as well as its realization, through the hands and career of the renowned chef Romain Fornell.
The author reflects on the weight of his country’s gastronomy and how it forged his journey from France to Spain, to find himself in a city, Barcelona, where the most traditional Mediterranean cuisine collided fearlessly with the emergence of a rebellious, modern and groundbreaking gastronomy. With expertise, recipes, a sense of humor and a deep knowledge of the culinary universe, Fornell addresses in Chef the thousand ways food can be understood.
