Now is the time to search for more of Chef Jose Andre's news. Friends and I will be searching for his restaurant reports. Best wishes to him, his many restaurant team members and Anderson Cooper. From: Ginny DeppStanton

A true diamond of a story in a minefield of those about joblessness, political and corporate corruption, environmental disaster, war, etc. This story was uplifting and inspirational. It speaks to the very core of why America, despite its many issues, is the greatest country in the world; combine your dreams with hard work, sacrifice, more hard work, and a little luck and you can do anything. Jose Andres is a role model not only for his students but for ordinary Americans like me. Also, LOVED seeing Anderson Cooper.

How wonderful and creative are the foods or treats of Jose Andres. It is so exciting that he has lifted the limits on everything in cooking from temperature to texture, from mixing to piling, and the blending of solid, liquid and gas.......Molecular gastronomy....
With my CryoRain Inc. which fights fires and crises and extracts fuel has that same freedom, however, he wins, after the bite of cryogenic carmel corn, Mr. Anderson looked more like a dragon puffing smoke - water vapor - from his nostrils and mouth....Wow! I love it.
We had to identify with a new science as well - Thermistry. He is the first Molecular Gastronomist, and I the first Thermist. We use inert Nitrogen to handle crises while preventing chemical reactions like explosions, changing the character of fuels and materials. The cold counters the infernos and as a gas the fire suppressant, gaseous Nitrogen - NFPA Code 2000, is pulled to the actively burning parts of the fire ending their ferocity. And its no-arcing characteristic protects electrical and electronics items when fighting fires.

Thank you so much for this excellent story! I loved hearing about Chef Jose Andres really made me smile! I love that he is a long time and passionate supporter and volunteer of DC Central Kitchen. WOW! I am super impressed by him and Anderson Cooper's coverage of this unique inspiring American was terrific! I would have enjoyed it more only if I had gotten to sample some of the exquisite tapas!
