Question
I would like to know about Picasso's favorate foods. Any information would be helpfull.  

Answer
The Diary of Alice B. Toklas has recipes from artists served in Gertrude Stein's salon -- and Picasso was one of them.

You can probably find a book called Picasso's Table or Eating with Picasso or something, as there are some great recipe books out that recreate the foods and tables of artists (I just got one about Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and have another of Frida Kahlo's recipes) -- beautiful photography in that genre.

Also, try http://www.google.com  and look under Pablo Picasso + recipes; Pablo Picasso + kitchen; Pablo Picasso + entertaining; Pablo Picasso + eating; Pablo Picasso + food and so on.
