  1. You know, he’s an incredible philanthropist and life saving charity worker, and a legendary chef but I gotta say….

    I never realized José is kind of a Silver Daddy 😳

  2. In some ways Mythical Kitchen is the spiritual successor to Bourdain's ethos; connection via food, a focus on the truly important things, digging for the deeper insights

  3. Chef José Andrés is a living legend that deserves all the praise 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
    The man has done so much good for humanity and continues to feed those less fortunate and in dire need of help, compassion and kindness 🕊️

  4. Omg. Omg this man is a living angel on earth. I havent been this excited for a last meal, ever. Jose, thank you for teaching me about the world in a way only Anthony Bourdain ever did. And you are walking the walk. Thank God for you sir ❤

  5. What a legend … Such a pleasure to watch an expert in this field just enjoy the food instead of being a prick about it.
    Warms my heart. So inspiring.

  6. What an amazing interview. Jose is such a special person/soul.
    Thank you so much for this. He brings such joy and energy to everything he's involved in, including this episode. 💜

  7. I first became aware of his organization after they arrived in my community for hurricane relief years ago. Later in grad school, I used World Kitchen as a case study in climate disaster response, and a model of effective deployment. Incredible organization and incredible episode.

  8. This episode was one of the best if not the best. I wish I could live with the intensity of chef Andres.

  9. Just casually sending a video message to Ferrán Adriá during an interview is the hardest flex I've ever seen happen during a Last Meals episode

  10. I love this show, I think Josh is a great interviewer… until the crab comment. Maryland born and raised. You lost me (and I could even ignore the blasphemy about In-N-Out burger being better than Shake Shack…or even 5 Guys).

  11. What an opening story, that moment the tray started slipping must have been horrifying. Such a charming interview though. "Did you ever see a bear eating a salmon with a fork and knife? I think once, but I think I was high." Gold!
    Lastly, is there a patreon version of this video which shows them going outside to light those stogies?

  12. I moved to Spain yrs ago and pan con tomate, the olives and canned fish are my fav 😋 I love how he eats with his hands

  13. I found the background music (at for instance 5:50) quite distracting. Especially when he is talking about something so somber. Just some feedback.

  14. I would give up anything to be taught by Jose how to cook and eat. I feel like food is something you eat at any level of society and can be cooked by any level and it's a beautiful touch point for all humans. I want to feel that part of life and the height of emotions and joy it can bring

  15. Oh this is so emotional for me. I would have 1000% the first part of Jose Andres’ meal because that’s my childhood too. My mom used Jose Andres’ cookbook to make us croquetas.

  16. Watching an Spaniard I have very little to do with in terms of age, life experiences and everything else except nationality enjoy the same staples I find to be the most fundamental of Spanish cuisine (tortilla, tuna on bread, bechamel scooped up with the finger from the tray…) is truly such an experience

  17. Seeing this is amazing, and I could imagine more guests in the future whose jobs are connected to food, like Vijay Kumar of Seema, Alice Waters, Thomas Keller, Peter Wells, and Sam Sifton.
