Book Summary Information

Summary of A Late Dinner: Discovering the Food of Spain

Richardson's vibrant writing takes readers beyond gazpacho and paella and immerses them in the flavorful world of Spanish food -- from the typical coastal cuisine; to the ancient shepherd cooking of the mountains; to the cities of Madrid, Barcelona, and San Sebasti?n, where chefs are setting the trend for modern cuisine across the globe. His evocative descriptions -- the fried ?sh in C?diz; the tender asparagus and sweet crispy lettuce of Navarre; the Catalan cal?otada, a feast of grilled spring onions in a nutty, delicately spicy sauce; the whimsical creations of internationally acclaimed chef Ferran Adri? -- are a celebration of the senses.

Richardson traces the roots of Spanish cooking to the landscape, the people, and the history of this beautiful and complex country. A Late Dinner is a glorious and intimately drawn portrait of Spain.
