One of the world's most prolific authors, Paulo Coelho's favorite food is bread with olive oil and salt. It is among the favorite foods the author usually has for breakfast which also includes orange juice, coffee and milk.
In a recent tweet Chef Dan Galhardo shared a picture of a piece of bread dipped in olive oil. "Pão só com Azeite e Sal. Correto?," he captioned the picture. The tweet caught the attention of an admirer of Paulo Coelho, who replied to the Chef with: "Se não me engano, era uma iguaria muito citada por @paulocoelho no Diário de Um Mago." (If I'm not mistaken, it was a delicacy often cited by @paulocoelho in The Pilgrimage)
