Chef Jose was introduced to cooking at the age of eight. Being immersed in the aromas of delicious food cooking in his New York neighborhood set him on a path toward becoming a professional chef. He’s built a 20-year career and refined his culinary skills while apprenticing under three master cooks. With his mantra, “food builds community,” in mind, Chef Jose works to create nurturing meals while teaching others to do the same.
