A family tradition, coming of age, a gastronomic journey around the world... A beautiful story that unfolds in the kitchen, with delicious dishes in a final annex.

The story of a family tradition, the transition from childhood and adolescence to adulthood, and above all, a journey through the world and the representative gastronomy of diverse cultures. "Grandma's Dining Room" is a story that stimulates the senses: the dishes are visually appealing, they envelop us with their aromas, they awaken our appetite... and they also leave an indelible mark on our emotional memory, as happens to the protagonists. From their childhood perspective, they do not understand the pleasurable effect that the delicacies cooked by the matriarch of the house have on adults. In time, they will discover that her food has the ability to mentally transport them through space and even make them lose track of time. From Mediterranean fideuá or Peruvian ceviche, to Indian chicken curry or Mexican enchiladas, passing through Japanese ramen or Italian risotto, among other culinary specialties. A book that highlights the value of gathering and sharing around the table; the act of eating as an experience to be enjoyed. A final glossary explains informative aspects about the preparations, anecdotes, or varieties of each recipe. Pilar Hurtado's text, which literarily alludes to magical realism, pairs with Luisa Rivera's illustrations: her warm tones evoke the comfort of home, amidst the colorful ingredients, and her landscapes—with surprising visual metaphors—are intensely vivid settings.
