She worked in iconic Bay Area restaurants like Chez Panisse, Copita, and A16 before opening her own Berkeley restaurant, Los Cilantros, in 2014. She specializes in unique and authentic dishes that she grew up eating in Mexico. She also caters and sells her famous handmade tortillas and masa at the South Berkeley Farmers Market.Feby Boediarto and Melati Citrawireja are the co-owners of Reculture Foods, a La Cocina-incubated tempeh company. Feby began fermenting her own tempeh in 2019, and launched Reculture to reclaim tempeh's Indonesian roots. Feby and Melati make their unpasteurized tempeh in small batches, preserving the deep flavor that mass-market versions often lose. You can now find their packaged tempeh in eight Bay Area stores.Ofelia Barajas and Reyna Maldonado, a mother-daughter team, are 2019 graduates of La Cocina's incubator program. After 15 years of selling tamales on the streets of San Francisco's Mission District, they formalized their business and opened Las Guerreras in Swan's Market in Oakland, a kitchen and cevicheria specializing in the tamales, pozole, and barbacoa of Guerrero, Mexico, all made from traditional family recipes.Ansarys Andino trained as a pastry chef at Town in New York City, and went on to work in The Water Club, Babycakes NYC, La Fonda del Sol, and Crave Fishbar. She built a decade of experience from cake decorator to head baker to pastry chef. After joining La Cocina in 2025, she started Chi Chi's Kiosko, bringing the flavors of Puerto Rican breakfast traditions and New York bodega culture to the Bay Area. Ansarys also regularly teaches culinary classes at Kitchen on Fire.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/fed598a0-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1109-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/feeb4380-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1139-h740-dcc8d8d8-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/ff604c70-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1139-h740-dce8d8b8-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/ff870e50-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1109-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/ffa1c240-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w895-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/fff5d5b0-c3a4-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1118-h740-dcd8d8d8-gmir.jpg   https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/00714740-c3a5-11f1-8964-5b65d1557b86-rimg-w1110-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg ABOUT LA COCINAFounded in 2005, La Cocina is a San Francisco nonprofit food business incubator that cultivates working-class food entrepreneurs, providing affordable commercial kitchen space, technical assistance, and market access.

We do this by providing affordable, shared, commercial kitchen space; industry-specific technical assistance and services; and access to market opportunities and capital.La Cocina works to solve the problems of equity in business ownership; inclusivity in the mainstream American marketplace; barriers to entry for women, people of color and immigrant business owners; and the high cost of entry in the food industry.In an increasingly expensive economy, La Cocina businesses have succeeded at a rate that far exceeds the national average, graduating 60+ entrepreneurs, launching 30 brick-and-mortar restaurants, creating hundreds of jobs, and generating $16MM+ in revenue in 2019.By the end of March 2020 in the pandemic, 70% of La Cocina-born businesses lost 100% of their revenue. As a nation, we lack the structural support systems to properly care for hourly workers and small business owners. It’s time to advocate together for immediate support and change.
