Receive Text UpdatesMy inspiration? My younger sister Veronika. At the age of 16 she told me about her experience in the kitchen, the wonders that happened behind the doors. And at a time that I lost my way in life she invited me to be part of this chaotically beautiful life, where every day I propose to be better and encourage myself to experiment with new techniques every day.
What's your all time favorite dish to make?The dish I like to cook the most is fried rice with sweet and sour chicken. This dish is my family's favorite whenever they visit me I cook this dish for them. I do nothing but mention it and my dad's words are "Pedro's Chinese rice doesn't sound bad." With this dish I feel that I can be me by adding my Boricua touch to an Asian dish.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I were the winner, I would donate $10,000 to the Dr. Isaac González Cancer Hospital (Puerto Rico Medical Center Cancer Hospital). I will invest the other $15,000 in equipment and advertising to improve my business.
