ILP 15: Andy Montero On The Value Of Relationships, Pursuing His Dreams, Opening A Restaurant, And Building A Great Team - ScottNeal.me

Andy grew up in Chesapeake (Great Bridge), Virginia with a simple story of great parents, 3 brothers (Danny, Greg, and Paul), and a wonderful group of extended family and friends. Andy's parents, Dr. Juan and Mary Montero, raised him to have a love and compassion for people and a love for food.

He grew up helping in the family kitchen and creating after school snacks for himself and his brothers. Andy worked at a local restaurant in Great Bridge, called Court House Café, and fell in love with this industry. Johnson and Wales University was his college of choice, and from there Andy learned all he could about this world he now calls “normal”.

Andy spent his mornings at school, and hs nights working in and sharpening his skills at numerous Hampton Road’s establishments like the “The Painted Lady” and “Cypress Point Country Club”. Andy had the pleasure of meeting and learning from talented chef instructors, traveling to Italy to study, and meeting his future bride and business partner!
