I draw inspiration from authentic flavors and the variety of flavors that can be created by combining, playing and experimenting.
I separate myself and my brand from others in this field by satisfying my customers and providing them with more knowledge than when they came into the restaurant. The Chable brand is completely different than any other. We truly embrace our culture, traditions and values.
My greatest career achievement thus far is becoming the Executive Chef of Chable Maroma. It has been so rewarding to learn from such a talented mentor like Chef Jorge Vallejo. He is so inspiring and innovative.
People would be surprised to know that I’m seriously afraid of heights.
My favorite place to enjoy an authentic meal is Mexico City. It has such a vast variety of anything you crave. But first and foremost, my mother’s kitchen. She makes the best chicken breast.
Tequila or Mezcal? Mezcal is my favorite.
I hope my greatest contribution to Mexico’s culinary scene is to support the people and their communities, especially those trying to produce something different and authentic to showcase to the world.
