    Ole Jose

    As much as I love José Andrés with his animated and friendly personality, I could never understand why this event was one of the first to sell out year after year.  All I really knew was that he always made a unique entrance to the event and made some of his delicious paella.  So this year I finally got the chance to see what all the fuss was about.
