The long-awaited cookbook by one of the San Francisco Bay Area's star chefs, David Kinch, who has revolutionized restaurant culture with his take on the farm-to-table ethic and focus on the terroir of the Northern California coast. 

Since opening Manresa in Los Gatos in 2002, award-winning Chef David Kinch has done more to create a sense of place through his food—specifically where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the sea—than any other chef on the West Coast. Manresa’s thought-provoking dishes and unconventional pairings draw on techniques both traditional and modern that combine with the heart of the Manresa experience: fruits and vegetables. Through a pioneering collaboration between farm and restaurant, nearby Love Apple Farms supplies nearly all of the restaurant’s exquisite produce year round.

Kinch's interpretation of these ingredients, drawing on his 30 years in restaurants as well as his far-flung and well-fed travels, are at the heart of the Manresa experience. In Manresa, Chef Kinch details his thoughts on building a dish: the creativity, experimentation and emotion that go into developing each plate and daily menu—and how a tasting menu ultimately tells a deeper story. A literary snapshot of the restaurant, from Chef Kinch's inspirations to his techniques, Manresa is an ode to the mountains, fields, and sea; it shares the philosophies and passions of a brilliant chef whose restaurant draws its inspiration globally, while always keeping a profound connection to the people, producers, and bounty of the land that surrounds it.

David Kinch is the internationally recognized chef and co-owner of Manresa, Manresa Bread, The Bywater, and Mentone. Manresa has attained three stars from the MICHELIN Guide (its highest honor), is an esteemed member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux and Les Grandes Tables du Monde organizations, and is frequently cited as one of the world’s best restaurants. David is consistently acknowledged as a leader in the culinary industry, with his peers voting him into the Top 25 of the World’s Best Chefs 2020 via Le Chef magazine. David is also the author of the New York Times bestseller Manresa: An Edible Reflection, and he won an Emmy Award for his role in the PBS series The Mind of a Chef. He enjoys spending time outside surfing and sailing along the California coast.
