Fork Knife
Born in Toronto, Canada, Jordan Andino began his foray into the culinary world at the young age of 9 learning under his father. After moving to Manhattan Beach, CA, he traded in his surfboard to work in fine dining kitchens and attended the Cornell Nolan School of Hotel Administration to grow his business acumen. Andino has honed his training & experience working at acclaimed restaurants including The French Laundry, Spago, and Jean Georges.
His hospitality skills and clean unique flavors have been an integral part of the opening of his Flip Sigi restaurants. A blend of classic Filipino Cuisine and French technique, Jordan’s cooking is an inspired combination of his grandmother and father. Blending those elements with Spanish and Mexican vessels, he’s created a unique signature profile for his Flip Sigi Restaurants. In addition to hosting “Late Nite Eats” & Food Boats on Food Network/Cooking Channel, Jordan is also a reoccurring judge on Food Network Canada’s “Jr Chef Showdown,” and is highly sought after for judge appearances on popular shows including Chopped, Rachael Ray, The Today Show, Beat Bobby Flay, Worst Cooks In America, Cooks vs. Cons, and Recipe for Deception.
