Chef Andre Guerrero
Named one of Los Angeles’ Top Chefs by Los Angeles Times Magazine, acclaimed Andre Guerrero is the Chef / Owner of Max in Sherman Oaks, Senor Fred and Oinkster in Eagle Rock, home to “slow fast food.”
A fixture on the Southern California culinary scene for more than 20 years, Chef Andre Guerrero has cooked in kitchens ranging from his family’s restaurant to the Los Angeles Biltmore Hotel and developed his own style of contemporary ethnic and fusion cuisines in his many restaurants.
Chef Alex Dino
Cited by Fortune Magazine as among the best three chefs in the best company cafeterias across America is Chef Alex Dino, the brilliant Pinoy behind the “standout cafeteria cafe” of Factset Research Systems in Connecticut. Originally from Tondo, Manila, Alex Dino got his culinary training working in his mother’s cafeteria business from the time he was a young boy to his college days. He took up a Business course in the University of Santo Tomas and worked at two food companies, Baltimore Spice (Phils.), Inc. and Mix Plant Inc. before moving to the States. To further develop his skills, Alex enrolled at the Art Institute of New York City where he earned his Masters in Culinary Arts. He then worked in Alta restaurant as line cook, at Whole Foods Market as production chef and in Marriot Hotel as banquet chef before he was hired as executive chef of the Cafeteria of Factset Research Systems.
Every working day, Alex is tasked to prepare breakfast and lunch for 800 employees at the cafeteria and personally serves around 20 top managers who dine at a separate dining room. Dino and his staff create and serve countless concoctions for different food stations at the cafeteria - the pasta station, the Chinese food station, the grill and carving stations (with roasted filet mignon and other steaks), the baked goods, deli, pizza, soup and desserts stations.
If it’s true that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, then our Pinoy chefs in the US have certainly won American hearts across the land! (www.asianjournal.com)
