Full Description

A unique collection of life lessons from renowned chef and humanitarian José Andrés

José Andrés is a chef, entrepreneur, author, TV host, and tireless humanitarian leader across the globe. A Michelin-starred chef with more than 30 restaurants, José is perhaps best known as the founder of World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit dedicated to feeding the hungry in the wake of natural and manmade disasters. His lifetime of experience -- from the kitchen to war zones -- has given him a wealth of stories and teachable moments that are funny, touching and insightful, animated by the belief that food can bring us closer together and the conviction that each of us can change the world for the better.

Written in José's unmistakable voice, Change the Recipe is a collection of José's most affecting and powerful life lessons: hard-won wisdom from a man who has dedicated his life to changing the world through the power of food.
