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.

Chicken Enchiladas with Tomatillo Sauce
remains a favorite. The smokiness of the beans is excellent paired with the light lime flavor throughout

Tortilla-Crusted Swai
Sauce and jicama salad were amazing! The fish was good too but I wasn't able to get the breading crispy.
