We delve into another side of Urdaneta chef Javier Canteras, his love of music. Chef Javier talks about his early influences from his childhood, as he moved from Spain to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Arriving not speaking a word of English, he found it difficult to assimilate. He escaped into a love of 80s metal music, eventually finding his way into various bands. Later in life, he followed his band's drummer to Portland. That didn't pay the bills, so he turned to kitchens because it's one place he was comfortable, as both his parents instilled a love of cooking in him. Starting as a dishwasher, he worked his way up, landing a spot on a TV cooking competition show, taking the $100k prize as a means to turn his Basque Supper Club into what is now Urdaneta.
We also talk about Javi's trips with host Chris Angelus' Portland Food Adventures and why Spain is such a great destination. www.portlandfoodadventures.com Hear Javier's music: YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/@Everydayslave?si=tBtPXkc3xV9FD3S1 SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3pl5SLIfkhni5b8S52f4LE121 jaksoa
