(FILES) In this file photo taken on June 26, 2018 Spanish chef from Catalonia Ferran Adria poses during a photo session in Paris. Ferran Adria -- "the most influential chef in the world" -- is a man on a mission. Just not one that involves him having to run a restaurant. The Catalan -- whose elBulli restaurant was named the best on the planet a record five times -- is out to prove that the wildly experimental dishes he pioneered there still cut the mustard. / AFP PHOTO / JOEL SAGET
