About
Personal chef and cooking instructor in Austin, TX. My specialty covers foods from South America to North America. I'm motivated by the stories behind cooking and expressing that story into the flavor of the food. In 2017, my brother and I created Yuyo Peruano restaurant as a celebration of my culinary immersion throughout South America, where I connected with the people and the culinary community from Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, and Uruguay. I was recognized by the James Beard Foundation with a Best Chef nomination in 2019. Due to covid Yuyo closed with many other opportunities to cook for many more than I could have imagined through CookUnity.

Peruvian-Style Chicken Chow Mein
The chicken was rubbery, dry and didn't have a good taste. I'm very disappointed with the quality of chicken from CookUnity on some of these meals. If they had better chicken, I would always order.

Chicken in Poblano
Would be great if you could reduce the carbs a little bit.

Street Style Steak Burrito
It was ok. But it's too caloric for one meal, the nutrition isn't great.
