Dalí. Les dîners de Gala

When six years old I wanted to be a cook, Dalí wrote.

Sixty-eight years old his ambition was fullfilled in the shape of a book: Les Dîners de Gala, originally published in 1973 in the French language, consists of twelve chapters, featuring 136 recipes from celebrated Paris restaurants as La Tour d'Argent and Maxim's, illustrated in surrealist fashion by Dalí himself. This book is at once an artwork, a practical cookbook, and a delicious morsel of multisensory pleasure.
