Chef Jose Andres is feeding troops in DC

[kpete]

Hey everyone...just finished delivering hot stews to some of the National Guard & others on this rainy night in DC. I know there’s a lot of concern about the Guard...but our city & many restaurants are making sure everyone is taken care of! One Guardsman had a message to share...

1. Chef Jose Andres has never failed to step up to the plate...

(Yes, I realize that is a sports metaphor AND a pun) in times of strife to feed and care for those in need.

It has been continual.

2. Chef Andres should be getting the Medal of Freedom instead of the nitwits

chosen by trump. And he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize and every other accolade.

5. gmta.

was just about to suggest him for the medal of honor.
peace prize would be righteous as well.

3. He is a real hero. Always there in dire times to help out.

And that hot meal means a lot to everyone receiving them. It is comforting to get a good hot meal in times of crisis.

9. Good....

because those troupes have a job right now that I'm sure is giving them some mental distress. They need whatever can help the heavy hearts many may be dealing with.

Having to guard your own country from fellow countrymen, that's got to hurt somewhat.

13. Deafie here: could someone summarize the guardsman's message for me? Thanks.

15. The lieutenant from PA said:

They've gotten lots of support and donations like food and coffee, and Washingtonians have been treating them great.

Chef thanked him for his service.

Very short version, hope this helps!

16. It does.Thanks so much. It's frustrating that most cellphone videos won't have captions, and

many from TV don't, either.

17. The National Guard introduced himself.

Sorry, I couldn't quite catch his name however. He wanted to thank the businesses, restaurants and citizens for all the donations for food and coffee. They're all very appreciative of all the support that they've been getting.

22. Thanks. nt

14. Not Chef Andres but you can send a pizza to the troops and help local businesses survive

20. I kicked this OP because it's not specifically pizza.

Not everyone can eat pizza due to multiple digestive and inflammatory issues from consuming it.

[Tommymac]

21. But a lot of people like it. Anything to help the troops

They are adults and know what they can and cannot eat.

Find and post other links that are sending other food to the troops and post it here too. The more the merrier.

23. If you go to the link, it mentions that around a dozen different local restaurants

are a part of this, so it's definitely not just pizza. I donated the other night, so I know this to be true.

18. That man is always where he is needed.

He should be one of Joe's first Medal of Freedom recipients.

... if Trump hasn't cheapened it by now with his other awardees.
