Stories of gourmet pleasure.

Task

More than just a book: “Epicurean heroes 01” places the spotlight on gourmet pleasure with opinions, stories and restaurant tips. The project portrays 12 heroes for whom gourmet pleasure is a passion, a job and a fascination. The book visits the heroes behind the scenes and reveals their secrets. In 12 stories they disclose their favourite places and gourmet products and invite us to experience them in person.
