Product Description

Review
Report on the UK launch of the TV show Spain: On the Road Again, which the book accomanies. It airs on UKTV and stars Gwyneth Paltrow. --The Guradian, 12th December 2008

Product Description
Spain...A Culinary Road Trip is the companion book to the prime-time UKTV series Spain...On The Road Again. The premise is simple: Mario Batali and Mark Bittman are single-minded, food-obsessed friends who are constantly on the lookout for the food, wine, and cooking that is unique to Spain. The actresses Gwyneth Paltrow and Claudia Bassols are eager to enjoy all the pleasures the country has to offer. In nearly every episode, however, each pair will be lured into the worlds of the other. The four of them on the road together will make for a very fun showcase of the pleasures of Spain, including road trip adventures, and the country's art, history, culture, and music as it's never been seen before - all in the course of an anything-goes road trip.

1.0 out of 5 stars Spanish cousine is much more than this, 3 Jun 2009
By Carlos J. Gonzalez Bueno (Spain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
What a disappointment. The author had surely fun during his trip to Spain and the book may help him to sponsor it, but it really is not much worth... Spanish cousine is much richer and complex than one could imagine after reading it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Banal, and brilliant too!, 19 April 2009
By corsario (scotland) - See all my reviews
Just a lot of fun! Bought this after watching the TV series, and loved it! OK, some overacting, some "for the camera" scenes, but what do you expect from 4 actors? (Well, 2 real actors, a world renowned chef, and the food editor of NY Times)

The book is just full of little anecdotal gems, with recipes from each region, and a good dollop of history backed up with some really excellent photography.

The rather banal and sometimes inexplicable verbal exchanges between the characters just knock off the fifth star for me...and yet, some of those mots justes are extremely entertaining too...

Maybe I'll give it 5 after all...

If you like Spain, travel and food, i suggest you buy this!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you love real Spain you must get this book., 13 Mar 2009
By Mr. A. Turbefield (Broadway, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I watched the series on Uk Food and wanted to get it on DVD. As it doesn't appear to be available I had to buy the book. The book and the series were just a really pleasant, down to earth account of how enjoyable Spain can be. It covered areas that we hadn't been to that we must do now, but also places that we have enjoyed over the years. The recipes are excelleent.

Overall if you love the Spanish way of life as I do then the book is an absolute must.
