We shed a few tears when El Bulli announced it was closing its
impossible-to-get-through doors.

But now Ferran Adrià, its chef and a molecular gastronomy pioneer,
gives us a glimpse into his domestic side with his new cookbook The
Family Meal: Home Cooking With Ferran Adrià. Unlike El
Bulli, the food here doesnt resemble Frank Gehrys buildings. Its a
rather simple affair, intricately illustrated and organized into 31
three-course meals, each with its own time and portion chart. Easy peasy!
As for our dreams of El Bulli? Well happily consider this our
consolation prize. Anya Georgijevic

If you’re a huge El Bulli fan you won’t want to miss El
