El Bulli: Cooking in Progress at MFA in Dec

If you haven't see it, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston is showing El Bulli: Cooking in Progress Dec 21-30. It's one of my favorite films of the year.

"El Bulli: Cooking in Progress by Gereon Wetzel (Germany, 2010, 108 min.). “A treat for chefs and foodies,” (The New York Times) and a sold-out success at the MFA in August, the film program brings back this behind-the-scenes documentary that witnesses the tasting, smelling, and designing of new culinary delights for heralded chef Ferran Adrià’s world famous El Bulli Restaurant. Adrià closed El Bulli on July 30, 2011 to set up an academy of culinary arts. After Adrià made this announcement, more than two million people applied for a last chance to eat there. In Spanish with English subtitles."

I saw Ferran Adria talk at Harvard last night as part of the Science and Cooking series which he helped start two years ago.
