Rachel and I are proud to contribute an autographed copy of A Day at elBulli, the latest volume from Ferran Adria, the world's most famous chef.  A Day at elBulli is a photo-essay of a service at elBulli interspersed with recipes, menus, and musings.  Chef Adria autographed this copy during his visit to Toronto in October.

If you're looking for the perfect gift for the cookbook collector or molecular gastronomy geek in your life, look no further.  Let it ride on prize CA02, the prize code for this autographed copy of a remarkable book that we will ship anywhere in Canada or the United States.

And please help a great cause in the process.
