9DRIP STORI3S | JORDAN ANDINO: THINGS THAT YOU PURCHASED WHEN YOU FELT THAT YOU HAD MADE IT

1. Haven't made it yet but.... I knew I leveled up when I was able to afford an apartment in NYC with a staircase in the apartment. I feel like, as an NYer, if you have stairs in your apartment, things are going well.

2. Haven't made it yet but.... when I got the keys to my NEW restaurant, an upgraded Flip Sigi on 7th Ave, i knew that my partners and I were on the right track to restaurant success.

3. Haven't made it yet but.... I took my upper management team and their spouses to dinner at Blue Hill at Stone Barns a few years ago and we drank wine, ate 15+ coursed meal, and dined like royalty.  I must say, it was an event that will always be remembered and is a barometer of my success for sure.

4. I'm always wearing Converse Chuck Taylors. High tops, low tops, leather, weather proof, and classics. It's a shoe that dresses up and down and always makes me feel comfortable and fashionable.

5. During the fall and winter months, you can always find me with a leather jacket. It's a classic fit, greaser style, and legitimately looks better the more I wear it.

6. My Ray Ban Aviators. I mean, classic look, light brown tint, light on the face so I don't get headaches and the Top Gun inspo is unforgettable mood.

7. I purchased an all expense paid trip to Vegas for my Grandmother and Grandfather for her 30th Anniversary. It was at the Wynn and felt like such baller move and made me so happy that I was in a place in my career that I could afford to do that. Probably going to do it again this year as a surprise... but please don't tell them!

8. This past Christmas I asked my connects at Nike to help me get Nike swag for all of my family members. 18 close family members in total received everything from shoes, parkas, jackets, hoodies, fleeces, and shorts. My favorite clothing brand going to my favorite people... best Christmas ever!

9. I flew my dad down to NYC to cook at the James Beard House together. It was a momentous for both my career and for my dad whom is a chef and always dreamed of cooking at the James Beard House. The fact that we sold out the dinner and pulled off the event without a hitch was an amazing feat and a memory of the a lifetime.
