Attraverso un approccio trasversale, in questo articolo si analizzano alcuni dei primi testi sulla gastronomia di Nèstor Luján e Joan Perucho, apparsi nella rivista Destino, in cui, seppur con differenti intenti, i due autori scrivono di cibo e interscambio di alimenti nella cucina mediterranea, con una attenzione speciale ad un possibile dialogo con il territorio italiano, osservando principalmente il caso Venezia, considerata porta d'Oriente e unicum urbano sulle rotte del Mediterraneo levantino e bizantino.
