Who We Are

Ita was born in Matanzas, Cuba where she met our dad, Papi, when she was 14.  Five years later they married.  Soon after the Cuban Revolution of 1959, they fled with their children to the USA, land of the free.   While growing up in Houston Texas, we enjoyed her culinary genius that made our meals the center of family life.

To this day, we sense her warmth and love of family when enjoying her rendition of Cuban Black Beans.   

Surprisingly delicious and amazingly healthy, we hope you enjoy them as well.

Salud,

The Martinez Family
