When I was a little girl, I remember going over to my Grandma Juanita’s house in East LA and being sooo excited because I knew was about to get some fresh tortillas in my belly, and I mean F R E S H ya’ll. I remember being cooped up with all my cousins in one house, and so excited because 1.) we got to play TV tag whenever we wanted, and 2.) Grandma Maria decided she was making us arroz con leche, which was the treat of our childhood dreams! The smells in the house during Christmas time with masa and pozole spices filling the warm Los Angeles holiday air, the lack of self control to stop eating homemade corico cookies and all the pan dulce I could stuff my face with; WOW. I didn’t realize I was so lucky to grow up with this food and was so lucky to always have fresh salsa in the fridge:) Food has always had a special place in my heart, not just because it takes me to happy places, but it takes me to my childhood, it takes me to my special core memories. Food is so transformative and meaningful and it’s brought so much joy to my life to be able to share it with my loved ones, especially when I get to be the one to cook it up! I hope you enjoy some of these recipes that now fill MY home up with all the smells and new ingredients I’ve found and grown to love living in the Pacific Northwest. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2a2c48867d21103beda7ca/57303b12-29e7-40a7-a8a1-4bbc4a01e1d7/IMG_7540.jpg Recipes - Make it stand out Chocolate chip banana oat bread. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2a2c48867d21103beda7ca/a882d48d-aea4-4508-8116-b5c5a70506e7/IMG_9547.jpg Recipes - Food takes you places.

Republica, and everything that these folks create is on that list. Teleport yourselves with a taste of culture, and enjoy the stories the staff presents with each dish. Not just for a fancy occasion, the thought behind each ingredient made my lil latina heart so happy and grateful! Definitely a must, along with some of their other ventures such as La Perlita and Matutina with the best pan dulce in the city! En serio! https://republicapdx.square.site/ https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2a2c48867d21103beda7ca/2964cca3-cefd-4460-b65c-8f94499f7714/Screen+Shot+2023-01-29+at+12.49.52+PM.jpg Local Eats - HAT YAI It all begins with an idea and this idea was inspired by the streetside fried chicken vendors and small curry and roti shops in Southern Thailand. Holy moly if you want flavor, Hat Yai is a must stop in PDX. Both dipping curries are insanely good, with sticky rice, roti and of course the star of the show—FRIED CHICKEN GOODNESS. A little citrusy, garlicky, and full of flavor, these folks work so hard that you’ll be craving this after. Don’t forget the Mango horchata, I promise, you need it. You need like 2 of them. https://www.hatyaipdx.com/ https://www.lavidapdx.com/merch-more daily 0.75 2025-04-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2a2c48867d21103beda7ca/f7914151-f35d-4c01-a932-bee820b7f82b/unsplash-image-fX8leXj8Q4o.jpg Merch & More Each item is made a little differently and made with lots of love and patience.
