Editorial Reviews

New York City chef/author Anthony Bourdain is invited to film the research laboratory of Ferran Adria, the most controversial and imitated chef in the world—chef/owner of El Bulli, voted "World's Best" by Restaurant Magazine and the most visited by chefs on sabbatical. The lab, an ultra modern, Dr. No-like facility with sliding walls, backlit ingredients, latest equipment and a full staff of devotees is tucked away inside a vast, renaissance-era palace in the old section of Barcelona, Spain. Adria and his chefs close the El Bulli restaurant for six months out of ever year to work on new concepts. Bourdain tracks Ferran's process from lab to a once-in-a-lifetime meal at El Bulli restaurant, enjoying a high-concept, surrealist, haute cuisine meal of unparalleled creativity and striking visual appearance.

I am a fan of Bourdain's. I own some of his books and have purchased NO RESERVATIONS from itunes. This DVD is a 46 minute TV episode. Having to pay almost thirty dollars for this DVD is just wrong.

Wonderful!

I worked at El Bulli and remember Bourdin being there, filming with his crew. Watching this brought to light so many things I didn't even see--and I was there! It's a thoughtful, wonderful video if you're interested in El Bulli, the taller, and insight into the mind of the genious of Ferran Adria. A must have for molecular gastronomists.

I was able to get a reservation to el Bulli in July and I had to get this DVD since it was the story I saw on Anthony Bourdain's show that became the catalyst for me to get this reservation. I had to wait 1 and 1/2 years for this reservation and am looking forward to this trip.

Cheaper than a trip to Spain...

This DVD helped to satisfy my curiosity about the "best restaurant in the world", at least according to a recent survey. If you are interested in
molecular gastronomy, Chef Adria is the Mr. Wizard of food science, and
he and his crew seem to love their work in the state-of-the-art laboratory where they spend half of each year experimenting with new concepts. Anthony Bourdain is the perfect host to take us through the three-hour dinner that shows off the results of their research. The beginning is a little slow, but
there is nothing quite like this restaurant, and this was a great way to
see what all the fuss is about.
