The Best Recipes In The World: Episode 9

Episode 9: The Cutting Edge
To call one restaurant the "best in the world" seems ridiculous, arbitrary and totally subjective. But in the case of El Bulli, Bitty believes the statement is valid. This entire episode is dedicated to the genius of Chef Ferran Adria. But to understand one genius sometimes you have to look at the work of another, so Bitty visits Valencia to see the architecture of Santiago Calatrava, in an attempt to discover why Spain is at the cutting edge of so many different art forms.

Ferran is hated in the US? Guess if it doesn't come from McDonalds, they don't know anything about it.

What professional chefs have you talked to? Ferran is loved and hated. In the US, mostly hated. I think he's awesome, especially after hearing him speak at Harvard.
