Love this book. I was looking for a recipe book with Cuban recipes and instead I found this book that told me about the history of food and restaurants in Cuba and how different foods have been used and adapted and introduced me to chefs and cooks that have made Cuba their home. A great read. I off to make some of the recipes now.

The best Cuban cookbook I have read, by far. Although the recipes tend toward the meat oriented, as does Cuban cuisine, it is certainly authentic and represents the best Cuba has to offer. I found the extensive notes, biographies on eminent Cuban chefs, and history of food to be the best part of the book. Astounding really. Well worth reading,
