Andrew Talks to Chefs SPECIAL REPORT #23: Jeff Gordinier on That Esquire Piece & Hugh Acheson on (not) Re-Opening in Georgia Next Week
You really don't want to miss this special double-header: Esquire's Jeff Gordinier takes us inside, and expands on, his impassioned piece that tied restaurants, music, culture, and politics into a masterpiece of the moment that was circulated the world over over the past weekend. And Georgia-based chef-restaurateur Hugh Acheson responds to his state governor's decision to allow a cross-section of businesses, including restaurants, to re-open in the coming days, and why his restaurants will remain closed to the public, while continuing to participate in Jose Andres' World Central Kitchen program.
Our thanks to S.Pellegrino for making these special reports possible.
