This Spanish style winery was closed for awhile due to some owner disputes and cha. Nges and is now reopening. Andre is the chef here and spoke absolutely no English. We managed just fine -seeing how there was only a few guest today. He was so nice and easy to work with. I loved Ruca Malen! October 6, 2008 at 8:51 PM.

One morning chef came in the kitchen and told us all that he had an epiphany during the night and dubbed Ron , which is his birth name, Mookie. No one has called him Ron since. He says he is over 18 but I've yet to see his drivers licence. In fact now that I think about it, I have never seen him drive. Mookie. To the rescue Chef Doug, who is the pastry and Baking Chef that is...
