    "description": "<b>The long-awaited cookbook by one of the San Francisco Bay Area's star chefs, David Kinch, who has revolutionized restaurant culture with his take on the farm-to-table ethic and focus on the&#160;<i>terroir</i>&#160;of the Northern California coast.</b>&#160;<br><br>Since  opening Manresa in Los Gatos in 2002, award-winning Chef David Kinch  has done more to create a sense of place through his food&mdash;specifically where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the sea&mdash;than any other chef on the West Coast. Manresa&rsquo;s thought-provoking dishes and unconventional pairings draw on techniques both traditional and modern that combine with the heart of the Manresa experience: fruits and vegetables. Through a pioneering collaboration between farm and restaurant, nearby Love Apple Farms supplies nearly all of the restaurant&rsquo;s exquisite produce year round.<br><br>Kinch's  interpretation of these ingredients, drawing on his 30 years in  restaurants as well as his far-flung and well-fed travels, are at the  heart of the Manresa experience. In&#160;<i>Manresa,</i>&#160;Chef Kinch details  his thoughts on building a dish: the creativity, experimentation and  emotion that go into developing each plate and daily menu&mdash;and how a  tasting menu ultimately tells a deeper story. A literary snapshot of the  restaurant, from Chef Kinch's inspirations to his techniques,<i> Manresa</i> is an ode to the mountains, fields, and sea; it shares the philosophies and passions of a brilliant chef whose restaurant draws its inspiration globally, while always keeping a profound connection to the people, producers, and bounty of the land that surrounds it.",
