There aren’t many “authentic” Mexican restaurants here in Tennessee! While I’ve tried a few and haven’t been completely wowed yet, I still enjoy exploring new places. My friends often find the local spots pretty good, and I appreciate that there’s always something new to discover and enjoy.
I’ve chatted with a few owners nearby, and they all share the same thing: the ingredients needed to craft a authentic taco al pastor just aren’t available here. I’ve attempted to make them the traditional way but haven’t had much luck. Maybe I should just stick to the BBQ styles I know well in my area. I’ll sneak in some salsa.

I’m a dreamer at heart, proudly born and raised in San Francisco—a city that covers just 49 square miles but was heaven on earth for me. Every corner of The City (as we natives affectionately call it) has been a part of my life. No area ever felt too distant. With wide eyes and an open heart, I’ve always welcomed the world around me. I find joy in creativity, wonder, and discovering new possibilities—whether that’s through international work adventures or dreaming up the next exciting idea. Even though San Francisco was my hometown, my passport has taken me to many amazing places and introduced me to wonderful people, shaping me in countless ways. I carry pieces of these experiences and friendships with me wherever I go. Above all, I treasure my family, friends, and those small, meaningful moments that keep my spirit alive and thriving. I never want my curiosity to fade away.
