Food for Thought

"I am fascinated by the process of constantly reaching further beyond what we already know. Food allows us to do that, to literally broaden our world. Once I'd never heard of pancakes; now on weekend mornings I'm happily making them for my daughters."
Jose Andres, DC chef and owner of Cafe Atlantico, minibar, Zaytinya, Oyamel and Jaleo

Food for Thought

"As an adult, I know that how we entertain is a combination of who we are and how we live, of all the dinners we've had and all the dreams we still embrace."
Ann Hood, Party Like It's 1959, Food & Wine Magazine, Nov. 2006
