Anya von Bremzen

Like most of the culinary world, food and travel writer
Anya von Bremzen has Spain on the brain. But unlike those
who have recently discovered Spain’s sophisticated flavors
and innovative charms, Anya has spent the last 10 years
writing about Spanish cuisine and culture. A contributing
editor at Travel + Leisure, she has pioneered Spanish
cuisine in publications like Food & Wine, Departures, Conde
Nast Traveler and the LA Times.

In her latest tour de force, The New Spanish Table, Anya
reveals the Spain she knows and loves, peppering delicious
recipes with historical tidbits, cooking hints and true
Spanish hospitality.

In addition to The New Spanish Table, Anya is the author of
four ethnic cookbooks, including the James Beard Award-
winning Please to the Table: The Russian Cookbook, Terrific
Pacific Cookbook, The Greatest Dishes!: Around the World in
80 Recipes, and Fiesta! A Celebration of Latin Hospitality,
which won Anya her second Beard award.

When she’s not in Spain or traveling to some exotic locale
to try a new restaurant, Anya lives in New York City.
