Chef Ferran Adria served up 40 courses of culinary magic when I last ate at El Bulli in 2007, from the gin-fizz aperitif where the froth was hot and thick to raspberries that dissolved on contact with a spoon.

He has ramped things up a bit since then at El Bulli, which has won the World’s Best Restaurant title five times and where some diners have tried for years to get a reservation.
