Frida Kahlo threw legendary parties at La Casa Azul in Coyoacán — political, artistic, chaotic, abundant. This book reconstructs her table through recipes, photographs, and memories from the people who ate there. Food as biography, culture as something you eat. The dispatch from inside the domestic life of one of the 20th century's most mythologized figures — not the suffering, not the paintings, but the mole and the tamales and the people she fed them to.
