Private Chef Yessica Omana Zumaya

With 15 years of experience in the gastronomy field, I specialize in Mexican and Mediterranean cuisine. I hold a diploma in International Cuisine from the Culinary Institute of Southeast Mexico and have worked in esteemed restaurants in both Mexico and Canada. My dedication and skills as a chef have consistently led to success in every kitchen I've been a part of. I’m passionate about gastronomy and excited to share that passion with others.

For me, cooking is...

Unforgettable experiences for my guests—moments that invite them to return time and again. Using only the freshest, highest-quality ingredients.

I learned to cook at...

Culinary Institute of Southeast Mexico Mamma Mia (Mediterranean and Italian food) Besame Mucho (Gourmet Mexican food) Sonora Meat (International Steak

A cooking secret...

Use fresh ingredients and always have a deep respect for people and gastronomy.
