S. in Chemistry and Biology from the University of San Francisco and his Ph.D. in Biochemistry from the University of California at Riverside in 1980. In 1981, while courting Mimi Kinsman (now Mimi Del Grande), Robert ventured to Houston where Mimi was visiting her sister and brother-in-law Candice and Lonnie Schiller. There, Robert began experimenting in the kitchen of the Schiller’s restaurant, Cafe Annie. Robert remained in Houston and soon became the Executive Chef of Cafe Annie. He has since figured prominently in the historical revision of American cooking, indelibly changing the culinary landscape with his use of the tastes and flavors of the Southwest. Robert and Mimi Del Grande and Candice and Lonnie Schiller are also the founders and partners in several other ventures:
