Colman Andrews
“In my continuing travels around Catalonia since the book was published, I’ve come to realize that I neglected a lot of wonderful traditional food in various areas. With all this in mind, I have started working on a major updating and revision of the original work, and this trip marks the debut of my new focused researches. Join me as I travel through parts of Catalonia that I have come to know and love, discovering new things and enjoying some of the captivating places and memorable classic and contemporary dishes that have kept me returning to the region for the past three decades.”
