I just purchased this book last night and could not put it down, I read it half the night! I am a personal chef and also cater for a prestigious Chamber Music organization in L.A. I purchased it originally for the tapas and empanada recipes to add to my repertoire of appetizers. I found the book very informative and easy to read, the recipes are inspiring and easy to follow. I just love all the historical tid bits and background info. I know I'll be reading and re-reading this for months, let alone ply my clients with great meals. My compliments to Ms. Von Bremzen for such a great culinary masterpiece. I highly reccomend this book to anyone who loves good food and a good story!
