Lolas Cocina

My love affair with Mexican culture stems back to childhood where I spent summers with extended family in Acámbaro, Guanajuato, my father’s hometown. Growing up Mexican-American in Southern California, I learned family recipes and spent many hours in the kitchen as a child with my mother, grandmother, and aunts who I consider my culinary mentors. I truly enjoy sharing my knowledge (and food) with others, especially with those interested in Mexican cuisine and culture. Beyond the kitchen, my passion for travel and finding interesting food scenes has taken me throughout the world to Cuba, Croatia, Greece, Morocco, Spain, Portugal, Israel, Colombia, Chile, and Thailand.
