review 1: A huge book that gives exactly what it promises. A day at El Bulli restaurant.Lots of cool photos capturing the atmosphere and the creative processes and the daily logistics of how El Bulli worked (the restaurant has since shut down, for owners' desire rather than financial need).El Bulli was one of the most famous and fanciest restaurants, and I tried to get a reservation there for a few years. I've only had luck in enjoying glimpses in Bourdain's shows, and maybe one day... we'll get some taste in some place run by some chef that used to work at El Bulli. Until then, this book is more than satisfactory. You even get a ton of recipes (you'll need your own tools to make the food turn to fire or ice or other elements, stuff I don't have even if my kitchen is equipped for mo... morest Japanese odd cooking quirks). Just awesome compilation of the atmosphere, techniques, trying to doucment the processes and the atmosphere and how the place worked. One physical day picked more or less randomly when the place was open. Can't hope for much more.
review 2: A Day at elBulli is the quintessential foodie bible. Ferran Adria takes the reader, if we can be called mere readers with this amazing and beautiful book, into a single day at his restaurant. The pages are not numbered but by the use of a time-stamp at the top of each page, we are let in to witness the activies of the restaurant. As a professional chef myself, I use this book for inspiration in my daily work. When I'm not trying some of the recipes Adria and his team have come up with, I'm using his genius as inspiration and trying out some of my own ideas. I think this book is one of my top choices for food writing/cookbooks. A very hearty 5 stars. One of the only books that would compare would be the Alinea cookbook. less
