When Nancy and Jorge Andrade heard about the waves that threatened to destroy parts of the Peninsula earlier this week, they immediately wanted to help.
As the owners of Andrade’s Cafe by the Bay, a Mexican-American spot serving classics like chilaquiles, enchiladas and chile relleno burgers, the couple naturally set out to feed first responders in the Peninsula area. Their restaurant, which has been open for about a year, is just a block from where waves damaged the Peninsula boardwalk and forced evacuations. Between Sunday and Monday night, the Andrades made about 20 pizzas for the firefighters who were filling sandbags and reinforcing a protective sand berm.
“The best thing I can do is just to help a little bit,” Jorge said. “I think pizza is the best way right now to help.” The couple said that the crews were very grateful.
