A new documentary film called El Bulli - Cooking in Progress, gives a rare insight into the work of renowned Spanish chef Ferran Adria.

For six months of the year, the avant-garde chef, sometimes dubbed the "godfather of molecular gastronomy" would close his restaurant and work with his culinary team to prepare the menu for the next season. What does the film tell us about the workings of this mysterious restaurant which served its last meal in July last year?

Ruth Rogers, the chef and owner of the River Cafe and co-author of bestselling River Cafe Cookbooks and Allegra McEvedy, chef, writer and broadcaster, who co-founded LEON, the award winning healthy fast-food restaurant group, debate.
