My Mother And My Grandmother Are Pioneers Of Mexican Cuisine In This Country, So I Grew Up In The Kitchen. My Mom, Zarela Martinez, Was By Far My Biggest Influence And Inspiration - And Toughest Critic.

I Like To Cook With The Philosophy Of Using Great Ingredients And Not Altering Them Too Much.

When I Was A Teenager, I Worked In New Orleans For A Chef Named Paul Prudhomme. That Was A Very Important Time In My Life As A Chef. I Developed My Palate And Learned A Lot. And Here I Am Now. I Specialize In Modern Mexican And Contemporary Latin Cuisines.

Instead Of Going Out, I'm Trying To Encourage People To Have A Memorable Experience In Their Own Home. We Call It 'delicioso Night In.' I Invite The People I Care About The Most. Then, When I Get A Lot Of People Together, I Like To Have Finger Foods.
