The success of Ricardo’s Place or La Cocina de Ricardo is dedicated to the family tradition of excellence that began with Grandma Juana in Mixtian, Jalisco, Mexico.
She was the main chef of her town and would prepare the food for small and large events, and devoted to making every occasion memorable.
This tradition of thoughtfully prepared recipes was passed to Mamacita Alicia who brought all of this knowledge to Southern California some 40 years ago.
