Manresa: An Edible Reflection cookbook which is written by David Kinch, owner and chef of 3 Michelin-starred Manresa opens a window into the world and recipes of the celebrity chef.

Tucked away in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains in Los Gatos, Manresa serves up a farm-fresh menu of contemporary California cuisine—a culinary movement that hinges on local and sustainable ingredients. In his beautifully photographed cookbook, chef David Kinch shares his favourite recipes, heavily inspired by Northern California’s land-and-seascapes. Short essays about the meaning of growing up and learning as a chef make the book unique while giving recipes depth and meaning. Kinch doesn’t just try to prove Manresa’s worth to the reader; he tries to convey recipes and adventures written with simplicity and sincerity to the reader on the road to success.
