Our Values as Cooks and Proud Mexicans

We cook with soul, with our hands, and with memory.
Our cuisine is not just technique—it is emotion, living history, and an act of love.

As Mexican cooks, we carry in our hearts the legacy of our grandmothers, our markets, our villages, and the ancient fires that still burn. We believe that every handmade tortilla, every salsa ground in a molcajete, and every shared recipe is an act of resistance, pride, and connection.

​

These are our values:

​

Identity. To cook is to honor who we are. We defend our roots, our land, our maize, and celebrate the diverse flavors that make Mexico unique.

Respect. We respect the ingredients, the rhythm of things, the labor of the countryside, and the wisdom of those who came before us.

 Generosity. In Mexico, we cook to share. There’s always room for one more at our table.

Transmission. Teaching others to cook is a way of preserving our culture. We believe in passing on knowledge with joy and generosity.

Pride without borders. We carry Mexico with us in every dish. Through every taco, mole, or loaf of homemade bread, we show the world the deep richness of our cuisine.

​

To cook, for us, is an act of love for Mexico—
a tribute to its history, a song for its people,
and a powerful way of saying: “we are here, and this is who we are.”
