Do you mean 41 grados? 42 courses staggers my imagination such that I had to look online but all I can find is '41 grados' in Barcelona. I would definitely like to get a detailed trip report review of that meal!!

I've already had one hit and one miss in 2012. The miss was at 'The Beach' restaurant at the Chedi in Muscat. We thought this was going to be spectacular based on the reviews but found it uninspiring and nowhere near the reputation.

The hit was at Osteria Da Fiore in Venice. Wow! Great meal in a great location. Had the seven course tasting meal, two bottles of Pinot Noir, and dessert. Could barely eat the next day, but definitely an experience to remember.
