José Andrés on Substack
José Andrés has launched his Substack, Longer Tables. From now until Dec. 31, 2022, 100 percent of the $50 membership fee goes to World Central Kitchen. From the newsletter:
A meal is never just a plate of food. It has the power to change the world. To bring people together. To tell the story of who we are, and where we’re going.
That’s why I started talking about longer tables when others wanted to build higher walls. We need to talk to each other, to enjoy our differences, to celebrate our diversity. Not push people away because they look or sound different.
Our challenges may be complicated, but the solutions are sometimes very simple.
