Chef Jose Andres responds to coronavirus with hope and action March 18, 2020, 4:55 p.m. quote:
Chef José Andrés is at it again. In the same breath the founder of World Central Kitchen announced he was shutting his famous restaurants in response to the coronavirus pandemic, he said he's transforming several of them into community kitchens to feed out-of-work families and struggling workers, according to the Good News Network. . . . It's just the latest action by the big-hearted chef who simply arrives when disaster strikes and provides a healthy meal. Andrés created the nonprofit World Central Kitchen after the 2010 earthquake in Haiti to match up chefs and volunteers with communities that need their culinary skills. Since then, the organization has brought meals to disaster areas in Brazil, Cambodia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Nicaragua, Zambia, and the United States in regions such as Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria and Florida's Panhandle after Hurricane Michael. Celebrity chefs Guy Fieri and Tyler Florence joined Andrés in Butte County, California, where they served Thanksgiving dinner to 15,000 evacuees of the Camp Fire that devastated the community of Paradise. https://www.mnn.com/lifestyle/responsible-living/blogs/chef-jose-andres-nominated-nobel-peace-prize
