José Ramón Andrés Puerta (Spanish pronunciation:[xoˈseraˈmonanˈdɾesˈpweɾta]; born 13 July 1969) is a Spanish-American chef and restaurateur. Born in Spain, he moved to the United States in the early 1990s and since then, he has opened restaurants in several American cities. He has won a number of awards, both for his cooking (including several James Beard Awards), and his humanitarian work. He is a professor as well as the founder of the Global Food Institute at George Washington University.[1]
José Ramón Andrés Puerta was born in Mieres, Asturias, Spain,[5] on 13 July 1969.[6] Andrés' family moved to Catalonia when he was 6.[7] He enrolled in culinary school in Barcelona at the age of 15, and when he needed to complete his Spanish military service at age 18, he was assigned to cook for an admiral.[8] He met Ferran Adrià in Barcelona, and he worked three years at El Bulli, from 1988 to 1990.[9] In December 1990, he was fired by Adrià and decided to move to the United States.[10]
Culinary career
Coming to the United States
At the age of 21, Andrés arrived in New York City to cook in midtown Manhattan at an outpost of a popular Spanish restaurant, Eldorado Petit. During his time in New York, he also staged servings at The Quilted Giraffe.[8] In 1993, Andrés was hired to lead the kitchen at Jaleo, a new tapas restaurant in Washington, D.C. In subsequent years, he helped the owners of Jaleo to open more restaurants: Cafe Atlantico, Zaytinya and Oyamel, along with two more Jaleo outposts.[11] In 2003, Andrés started minibar – a restaurant space within a larger restaurant – at a six-seat counter within Cafe Atlantico.[11][8]Minibar eventually became a stand-alone restaurant that has a twelve-seat counter. Seats are released on a monthly basis; according to the Washington Post they typically are reserved within 24 hours.[12]
Chef and restaurateur
As he opened more restaurants in the US, Andrés became more well known in his native Spain, starring in his own cooking show, Vamos a Cocinar, which debuted in 2005.[5] He also published his first book, Tapas: A Taste of Spain in America, in 2005.[11] In 2006, he partnered with Robert Wilder to form ThinkFoodGroup, making Andrés a co-owner in his restaurants.[11] Together, they opened more restaurants in Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Puerto Rico.[9]
The World Central Kitchen (WCK) raised almost $30 million in 2019, then $250 million in 2020.[24] In response to the 2010 Haiti earthquake, Andrés provided locally cooked dishes specific to the region essential to comforting people touched by disasters.[25] Since it was founded, the NGO has organized meals in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Zambia, Peru, Cuba, Uganda, Cambodia,[2] and in Poland on the border of Ukraine.[26] It has provided aid and meals in the United States and Puerto Rico and has helped during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Andrés runs WCK's operations with the help of ~200 devoted colleagues[27] including CEO Erin Gore and Direct of Emergency response Sam Bloch.[28]
In 2022, WCK took in $519 million in grants and donations.[24]
Israel–Gaza war
On 1 April 2024, seven WCK workers in Gaza were killed by multiple Israeli military airstrikes in the city of Deir al-Balah.[31][32][33] Andrés rejected Israeli and U.S. assertions that the strike was not deliberate. Andrés stated the seven workers were "targeted deliberately" and killed "systematically, car by car". The war in Gaza, he said, is "not a war against terrorism anymore" but a "war against humanity itself."[34][35]
