El Bulli: 1998-2002

[Steve Klc]

My money is on invento.

As I said earlier, I'll believe it when I see it--and something can't get pushed back that wasn't legitimately confirmed in the first place.

Theobroma--we've discussed and praised Albert's great book quite a bit, so, too Balaguer. (Some might say too much!)

[schneich]

if the thing wont come out we should try to do our own

translation.... !!!!!!

(you can censor this if you want steve i dont care)

i and lotz of other people already payed our 200$ on this one

so it would be only fair to get the recipes (which are tough

to replicate anyway) i a language one understands...

[tan319]

I'm ready to cave in and buy the Spanish one.

Theobroma: just use your translator, it will come out close enough.

[oenomania]

Good news!?!

Further to my earlier post I heard from El Bulli (whom I had thanked for my brilliant meal in June...) and they directed me to

http://www.gourmandbooks.com/

who offer the Spanish edition now and claim the English edition will appear at the end of the month. And there is a special price if you pre-order.

I have access to the spanish version

but many of the words do not translate since they are in catalna (sic) and not proper spanish..

But don't you think with a certain amount of knowledge of cooking theory, technique it is sort of clear?

[thebaker]

Yes Lots great information comes from it...

Sometimes it's a game trying to fiqure out what some of the Ingr. are

[tan319]

True, that!

[GordonCooks]

Any updates on this situation? I'm waiting until someone has an English copy in their possession before I order.

[eliotmorgan]

I recently recieved an email telling me I should have it by the end of the month. If it comes any earler I'll let you know. The book is not on the JB Prince site anymore, but you can order it at www.gourmandbooks.com. If you are in NYC give a place called Kitchen Arts and Letters a ring.

I have just received this email from www.gourmandbooks.com:

Albert Adria will be ready for shipment to you one week from now. It is

published by El Bulli with ISBN 8493310034, and Gourmandbooks is the

exclusive distributor worldwide.

[Simive01]

I too received this email a couple of weeks ago and the transaction has been processed. Has anyone received confirmation of a dispatch yet?

[Wolfert]

You can count me among the waiting.

I received the email last week and noted that payment had been taken from my visa account

[VeryApe77]

Heard from Gourmand books that they were shipped on Monday. Anyone got theirs yet?

Mine arrived just in time for a long weekend read. It looks fantastic.

i got an e-mail from our local cookbook store, Cook's Library on Third Street, that they were expecting to have their shipment arrive wednesday or thursday and that they'd let me know. haven't heard a word since, though it may be worth a visit if you're going to be close to the Beverly Center.

[VeryApe77]

Now I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon manically waiting for the phone to ring..."theres a parcel down here for you". Bet it gets here just after I leave to go home

Nice to know it actually exists though! Talk about "eagerly awaited"

[tan319]

Yep.

I just got an e-mail from them yesterday.

Time to take the plunge...

[oenomania]

My copy arrived this morning. Luckily I have a gross of rabbit brains and a kilo of gelatin at hand. Does anyone know where to source goose barnacles in central London?
