  • José Andrés Brings the Wonders of China and Peru to the Nation's
    For immediate Release Contact: Maru Valdés (202) 638-1910 x 247 [email protected] José Andrés Brings the Wonders of China and Peru to the Nation’s Capital October 28, 2013 – José Andrés, the chef who introduced America to traditional Spanish tapas and championed the path of avant-garde cuisine in the U.S., is opening a modern Chinese- Peruvian concept, in the heart of Penn Quarter in downtown Washington, DC. The restaurant will feature Chifa favorites–the cuisine known throughout Peru, melding Chinese style and native ingredients–with his personal and creative take on Chinese classics and this South American style. José is no stranger to weaving cultures together in a dynamic dining experience, he is well known for his interpretation of Chinese and Mexican food, culture and traditions at his award-winning restaurant China Poblano at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. At this new location, José and his talented culinary team will create authentic, yet innovative dishes inspired by their research and development trips to Asia and most recently to Peru, that have helped them master the various skills and techniques of this rising world cuisine. Highlighting the rich flavors, bold colors, diverse textures and unique aromas, the menu will apply time-honored Chinese techniques to Peruvian ingredients. From the classic Peruvian causas or ceviches, to Asian favorites like dim sums and sumais, the dishes will showcase Peru’s multi- cultural influences and ingredients in true Jose fashion. “Peru is an astonishing country. The people and the culture reveal so many traditions. The history with China is fascinating and the Chifa cuisine so unique,” said José.

Slave Trade By: Candido, Mariana P., Gudmestad, Robert H., Gudmestad, Robert H., Salau, Mohammed Bashir, Ojo, Olatunji [This entry contains five subentries dealing with the Atlantic slave trade from the sixteenth century to legislature prohibiting American participation in the early nineteenth century. Each article discusses a chronological segment of the duration of slave trade: the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries; the eighteenth century to the American Revolution; the American Revolution to 1808; the prohibition of slave trade in the United States; and the illegal African slave trade that persisted in the nineteenth century.] Slave Trade in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries From the beginning of the Iberian exploitation of the Americas, Africans represented the main source of labor, despite the existence of a large Amerindian population. For political, economic, and, especially, ideological reasons, the Spanish and Portuguese monarchies preferred to enslave Africans rather than Native Americans.

This was the same emotion we found in the students who enrolled in the 'l'ravel Writing Peru course in January 2014. They were about to have a wonderful e,perience. Four years after taking students to Peru in 2010, we were quite prepared to repeat the experience. A stronger economy and a larger influx of tourists has given Peru a more festive and colorful face.
