Don Jose Andres is known for spreading Spanish cuisine in all its beauty and richness in America. Born in Mieres, Spain in 1969, Andres began cooking at an early age, helping his mother in the kitchen.
At the age of 12, he can handle both paella and other complex dishes. At the age of 16 he began studying at the most famous culinary academy in Barcelona under the watchful eye of his mentor Ferran Adria.
Jose Andres left his homeland in 1990 to prove his culinary talent in New York. His endeavor proved more than successful, and a few years later he moved to Washington, where he began working as a chef and partner at Jaleo.
As a real man with a huge appetite, respect for food and reverence for culinary traditions, Don Jose Andres earned the title of unofficial ambassador of Spain with great difficulty.
In Cervantes' homeland, there is hardly a restaurant, port, cellar, roadside pub, market that don Jose does not know.
Ibiza excites him not so much with its wild nightlife as with the tapas on offer at the bars.
Santiago de Compostela is another city that attracts a famous chef with its remarkable local cuisine. He doesn't have time to walk miles because he gets hungry much faster. And don Jose's cathedrals are different - markets, restaurants, pubs, fishing boats.
Andres, who owns several expensive restaurants in the United States and Puerto Rico, recently revealed that he plans to broaden his horizons in the coming years and get serious about fast food restaurants.
The Spanish master chef believes that this is a great opportunity for chefs to say more about how the population of the planet will be fed. And fast food restaurants will achieve remarkable results in this endeavor.
Don Jose Andres has repeatedly stated most responsibly that more and more restaurants of this type should be run by famous chefs, not clowns, because it is a matter of respect for people and food.
