MI PEDACITO DE MÉXICO
BY CHEF KARLA HOYOS
From Catemaco, Veracruz, Chef Karla Hoyos has shared her abuelita’s passion for mexican cuisine since she was just a child. Between laughter and love, Karla and her grandmother cooked together the traditional recipes of southern Mexico. This marked Karla throughout her life and she has carried that passion throughout her culinary career.
This is how Tacotomía was born, a tribute to Karla’s grandmother, and Chef Karla’s way to honor her roots, her childhood memories and her abuelita, not only as a cook, but as a Mexican.
Because Karla learned from a very young age, not only to cook, but to share with the world what is most precious to a Mexican family, to warm people’s hearts one meal at a time.
Tacotomía is created thanks to Chef Karla Hoyos’ abuelita, who shared with Karla the love and respect for Mexican cuisine. It’s also Karla’s tribute to her Mexican roots.
Tacotomia honors and respects the entire process involved in Mexican food. From the cultivation of the maize grain in Chiapas, the nixtamalization of the corn to knead and create the tortilla to the end of the process with the taco that arrives to your table
Mexican food by Mexican people
For Chef Karla Hoyos it’s very important that the process of Mexican cuisine is the original, traditional Mexican cooking, and just as she remembers it from her childhood in Catemaco with her abuelita.
Therefore, all our materials are fresh and of the highest quality. And we do our best to collaborate with Mexican suppliers who grow the best quality ingredients
La familia es todo
In Mexico we celebrate family by sharing our favorite food. For Karla Hoyos, all the experiences at her grandmother’s ranch are part of her identity as a person and as a chef. She inherited the love for food, her abuelita show Karla to respect the preparation and to have patience with the process.
At Tacotomía we believe we are fortunate to share our food and traditions and we welcome you to our home. Please come in, the food is ready!
OUR VALUES
We honor and respect all of the ingredients by following the proper process of nixtamalization* to create the perfect, heart warming and 100% Mexican tortilla.
