Cuchara Y Memoria 2 (Memorias) / Spoon and Memory 2 (a Memoir) - by Benito Taibo (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Un festín para quienes saben que comer también es una forma de contar historias.

«Como y recuerdo, recuerdo y como». Con ese mantra como guía, Benito Taibo regresa a los sabores, olores y texturas que han marcado su vida. En este segundo tomo de Cuchara y memoria, que abarca de la langosta al zapato, el autor continúa hurgando en su historia personal y en la memoria colectiva para revivir aquellas comidas que le han provocado asombro, nostalgia, risas y, también, más de una decepción memorable.

Aquí no hay reglas ni jueces: cada quien tiene su forma de «agarrar el taco». Y lo importante, insiste, no es solo recordar, sino divertirse en el camino. Este libro es una invitación a leer con hambre y a compartir el viaje de un autor que escribe con honestidad, humor y un enorme amor por la comida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A feast for those who know that eating is also a way of telling stories.

"I eat and remember, I remember and eat." With that mantra as his guide, Benito Taibo returns to the flavors, scents, and textures that have shaped his life. In this second volume of Cuchara y memoria (Spoon and Memory), which ranges from lobster to shoe, the author continues to dig into his personal history and collective memory to revisit those meals that have sparked wonder, nostalgia, laughter, and also more than one memorable disappointment.

Here, there are no rules or judges: everyone has their own way of "grabbing the taco." And what matters, he insists, is not just remembering, but having fun along the way. This book is an invitation to read with hunger and to share the journey of an author who writes with honesty, humor, and a deep love for food.
