Has anyone seen the October issue of Bon Appetit? DC's own Jose Andres was named Chef of the Year. Previous winners include Thomas Keller, certainly not bad company to keep. It seems to me that this recognition is a great thing, not just for Jose, but for DC restaurants as well.

haven't seen it but this will make me look out for it. I have yet to go to Zaytinya, but have been to Cafe Atlantico (regular and mini bar) and Jaleo, and Chef Andres is definitely deserving of this award, congrats to him.

Yep -- good to see one of DC's own get his due. And not only in Bon Appetite. Chef Andres also made Chris Wallace's Show on Fox News last Sunday as the "power player of the week" because of his cheffing and because of his work with DC Central Kitchen. Well deserved Kudos.

I'm glad you mentioned the work José Andrés puts in with DC Central Kitchen - a lot of people know him as a chef, but not many people realize he has worked with this organization for over a decade, and became Chairman of the Board this year.

Here's a link to DC Central Kitchen's website, and here's a recent Washington Post article about the chef's work with them.
