Bittor Arginzoniz runs Asador Etxebarri in the Basque village of Axpe and has built his entire kitchen around fire, down to homemade grills and charcoal types chosen per ingredient. The book documents the working method, the philosophy, and the almost obsessive level of detail. Chefs make pilgrimages there, which says more about his standing in the profession than any star rating ever could. Anyone who already owns Seven Fires should own this one too, since together they make up the entire conversation about fire.
