When Ferran Adria – one of the world’s greatest chefs – was recently in Sydney for a day, I was lucky enough to get a chance to interview him.
In the car ride from the airport to his hotel, I got to ask him about whether he actually eats plane food; we went into detail about elBulli 2005-2011, his spectacular seven-book set about the ground-breaking restaurant’s last chapter; whether he still considers himself a punk (he used to blow up tomatoes and claim it was a “punky” phase he was going through); what he cooks at home and what’s next for elBulli.
You can listen to the podcast on iTunes or download it via RSS or directly. And thanks to everyone who has taken a few moments to slip some nice comments about the podcasts in the iTunes store, it helps spread the word about this project and makes all the audio-snipping and recorder-wielding very rewarding.
Thanks to Phaidon and Kate & Co PR for making this interview possible.
