In these texts, Desramaults reveals the secrets behind the pure and authentic cuisine of 'In de Wulf' and 'Chambre S par e'. Kobe Desramaults: "I want to keep experiencing the euphoria, every day, that there's something new. Because, for me, no matter how good a new creation is, a dish that was conceived two weeks ago is no longer 'alive'. Restlessness is the core of my life. The quest for enlightenment, on both a personal and professional level, is perpetual. You won't find actual recipes in this book, just stories about the origins of my dishes. I never write recipes down. My cooking doesn't follow a set formula because it is constantly evolving and inspired by the moment. Which is what everyone should aim for in the kitchen." "A pilgrimage to a plate. For those who trek to the backwoods of Dranouter, Desramaults is quietly turning out some of the most exciting tasting menus in the world." - Tejal Rao in The New York Times on 'In de Wulf': Text in English and Dutch. Contents: 43 food stories plus interview-based text about the life and inspirations of Kobe Desramaults by Rik Van Puymbroeck.
