His love for street tacos began as a child in Laredo, Texas. He started selling his brand of tacos from a cart in 2012 on the street corners of downtown Fort Wayne. The YLNI Barr Street Farmers Market was where his culinary creations took flight. He quickly made friends with the farmers and loved utilizing locally grown/raised ingredients in his preparations. While Perez embraces the food of many cultures, strong influences circle back to his Mexican and Texan roots. With an emphasis on fresh, local, non-GMO and organic ingredients, Perez has partnered with local farms and businesses, including Wood Farms, Yellow Cup Coffee Roasters, and several others to create his menu of playful, yet elevated fare.ABOUT PLATES AND MATES:This is an intimate, curated dinner series that brings restaurant recommendations to life.
