My cooking journey started at the tender age of ten, when my parents would host these elaborate Mexican-themed parties for their family and friends. It was a spectacle. Fajitas, margaritas, tequila, guacamole, freshly cut limes, you name it, it made an appearance on that dinner table. I was fascinated by the aromas that filled the house, not to mention the flavours. I was hooked!

Some years later, I opened my first Mexican Restaurant in Port Elizabeth, South Africa. Nestled in the heart of the city with a kitchen no bigger than a food truck. The concept and flavours centred on Mexican cuisine, but was by no means authentic. While I served many traditional and well-loved Mexican classics, I also took inspiration from all corners of the globe and fell in love with the concept of Mexican Fusion.

I will guide you through making your own tortillas and salsas, presenting tacos, enchiladas, and quesadillas, and exploring various cooking techniques—from braising and grilling to air-frying. And let’s not forget the delicious desserts to complete your meal, along with a collection of margaritas and exciting cocktails to tantalize your taste buds.

The recipes are easy to follow, with vegetarian-friendly options clearly marked (V). Just remember the golden rule: always keep it FRESH, whether you’re cooking a meat dish or a vegetarian one.
