Quote by Laura Esquivel

“Στην αναστάτωση που επικράτησε, ήταν ευλογία που εμφανίστηκε η Τσέντσα και πρόφερε τις μαγικές λέξεις: "Περάστε στο τραπέζι". Αυτή η αναγγελία ξανάφερε σε όλους τη γαλήνη και το πνεύμα που απαιτούσε η στιγμή και που λίγο έλειψε να είχε χαθεί. Όταν μιλάει κανείς για φαγητό, θέμα μεγάλης σπουδαιότητας, μόνο οι ανόητοι ή οι άρρωστοι δεν δείχνουν το ενδιαφέρον που του αξίζει.”
