Θλίψη στη σόουμπιζ: Πέθανε διάσημος σεφ

Θλίψη στον κόσμο της μαγειρικής και της σόουμπιζ, σκόρπισε η είδηση του θανάτου γνωστού σεφ, ο οποίος τα τελευταία χρόνια έκανε καριέρα και στην τηλεόραση.

Συγκεκριμένα και σύμφωνα με όσα μεταδίδουν διεθνή ΜΜΕ«ο σεφ των διασημοτήτων» Καρλ Ρουίζ πέθανε το βράδυ του Σαββάτου (21 /9) ενώ κοιμόταν. Ο γνωστός σεφ Καρλ Ρουιζ ήταν επίσης ιδιοκτήτης του κουβανέζικου εστιατορίου La Cubana που άνοιξε μόλις τον Ιούνιο στη Νέα Υόρκη.

Την δυσάρεστη είδηση του θανάτου του Καρλ Ρουίζ, έκανε γνωστή εκ μέρους της οικογένειάς του, το προσωπικό του εστιατορίου του Καρλ Ρουίζ. Το προσωπικού του La Cubana, έγραψε, μεταξύ άλλων, σε ανάρτηση στο Instagram:

«Είμαστε βαθιά λυπημένοι για την απώλεια του αγαπημένου μας σεφ. Δεν μπορούν τα λόγια να εκφράσουν τη θλίψη που νιώθουμε για τον ξαφνικό θάνατο του φίλου και αδερφού μας. Ήταν μια ισχυρή δύναμη της κουβανέζικης κουζίνας και έζησε τη ζωή στο έπακρο».

On behalf of the La Cubana family, with heavy hearts, we are deeply saddened to share the passing of our beloved Executive Chef Carl Ruiz. No words can fully express our sadness at the sudden loss of our dear friend and brother. Beyond his immense culinary talent, Carl's larger-than-life personality never failed to entertain, enlighten, and uplift every person he encountered along his #Ruizing adventures. His fierce intellect and infectious humor knew no bounds. He was a mighty force of down home Cuban cuisine, and lived life to the fullest, just as he cooked—with “dancing always” as the most important ingredient. Here at La Cubana, Carl paid proud tribute to his Cuban roots each night, and it is here that Carl's legacy, undeniable spirit and passion for his culture will live on. We hope we make you proud, Carlito. . To honor the work you loved so much Chef, La Cubana will continue your work in establishing The Carl Ruiz Scholarship Foundation for aspiring chefs. . We love you! You are already missed. Rest easy 🙏🏽

Πολλοί ήταν οι σεφ από το The Food Network, που με αναρτήσεις τους στα social media έσπευσαν να αποτίσουν φόρο τιμής στη μνήμη του Καρλ Ρουίζ, που έφυγε νωρίς από τη ζωή.

‪Good buddy of mine is gone. He made people laugh who’d forgotten how to laugh. He set rooms on fire. He was the match and the kerosene. The smartest and lovable-ist asshole I knew. This one gutted me. Goodnight, @saborchef

RIP Carl Ruiz. You hear it a lot, but never could it be more true. The world is significantly worse without you. Heaven doesnt know what just hit it.

I’m heartbroken that my friend chef Carl Ruiz is gone. I have no words to describe what a great friend he was to me and my family. His ability to make me laugh and smile under any circumstances was only outshined by his talent as a chef. Over the years, I’ve met a lot of great people but a friend like Carl is one in a hundred million. Carl ’The Cuban’ Ruiz will forever live on in my heart and in those of all who loved him.
