Born in Mexico City, Chef Jesus Quezada loved food from his early childhood days. Spending many days in the kitchen with his mother and grandmother Jesus learned his family’s traditional ways of cosinando (cooking). In 1989 Chef Quezada moved his own family to America to fulfill his culinary dreams. Earning a degree in culinary arts, Chef Quezada brings a spicy infusion to his American cuisine. When asked what he enjoys most about cooking, Chef proudly smiles and states. “It’s the applause from a large room filled with smiling faces and full stomachs. When I am in the Kitchen everyone is my family and I will serve only the finest to my “familia.”
