Devastation Dinners - Nate Mook, World Central Kitchen

$\"\"$ When the most powerful Atlantic storm in recorded history hit the Bahamas, the devastation was beyond belief. Before the hurricane hit, a team from World Central Kitchen was already there getting ready for the critical job ahead, feeding thousands of hungry, thirsty and often newly homeless. In short order the WCK team had scaled up to preparing 30,000 fresh meals per day for delivery by boat, plane, helicopter or on foot to government centers, schools, hospitals clinics, churches and more. World Central Kitchen was founded by Chef Jose Andres to rush to assist when disasters like these strike. The Executive Vice President of World Central Kitchen, Nate Mook explains the mission, vision and how World Central Kitchen works in this previously published encore edition of Farm To Table Talk. www.wck.org
