Award-winning chef Guillermo Pernot and acclaimed author Lourdes Castro unveil authentic Cuban recipes for home cooks, celebrating the bold flavors, creative techniques, and unique inspirations of the country's finest paladares.

Pernot and Castro tour the island, collecting dishes and stories that reveal a vibrant contemporary cuisine.
