Gala dinner: Salvador Dal???s surrealist cookbook

??Les d?ners de Gala is uniquely devoted to the pleasures of taste ?? If you are a disciple of one of those calorie-counters who turn the joys of eating into a form of punishment?? close this book at once; it is too lively?? too aggressive?? and far too impertinent for you.???Salvador Dal?

Food and surrealism make perfect bedfellows: Sex and lobsters?? collage and cannibalism?? the meeting of a swan and a toothbrush on a pastry case. The opulent dinner parties thrown by Salvador Dal? (1904?1989) and his wife and muse?? Gala (1894?1982) were the stuff of legend. Luckily for us?? Dal? published a cookbook in 1973?? Les diners de Gala?? which reveals some of the sensual?? imaginative?? and exotic elements that made up their notorious gatherings.
