He fell in love with this tropical city with its friendly people and unique Cuban culture. When not in the kitchen, Glenn documents the antics of the Three Guys from Miami in books, magazines, and on the Internet. Although he spends a lot of time in Miami, Glenn and his wife, Maureen, live in Eagan, Minnesota. Raul Musibay is a native Cuban and a full-time resident of Miami. He is known for his love of fishing, his great parties, and his mastery of the Cuban pig roast. Raul is the goodwill ambassador of the group. You'll find him at cooking classes and demonstrations "working the crowd," telling jokes, and making sure everyone is having a good time. Raul and his wife, Esther, live in Miami's Westchester neighbourhood. Jorge Castillo came to the United States from Cuba via the Mariel Boatlift in 1980. Jorge left Miami after three months to live in Iowa, where he mastered the English language and learned to love corn on the cob, root beer, and Cookie's Barbecue Sauce. Unlike his two brothers-in-law, he has always had an eye for food presentation. ILLUSTRATIONS: 90 colour photographs… (more)
