Donald Trump’s organisation is suing celebrity chef Jose Andres for backing out of a hotel project in Washington.

Andres had planned to open a restaurant at the Trump International Hotel. Trump’s organisation was selected by the federal government to renovate the historic Old Post Office building on Pennsylvania Avenue and turn it into a luxury hotel.

Andres announced last month that he was cancelling plans to open the restaurant, citing what he called Trump’s disparaging comments about Mexican immigrants. Andres is an immigrant from Spain.
