About Me

Hey there, I'm Ella, the culinary wanderer behind EatinWithElla! Originally a California girl from Los Angeles, I've traded the palm trees for the desert sun of Phoenix, Arizona, where I currently serve as the head chef at a local soup kitchen.

But my culinary journey didn't start in the desert – for two unforgettable years, I called Mexico City home. Amidst the bustling streets and vibrant culture, I immersed myself in the rich tapestry of Mexican cuisine, igniting a passion that continues to fuel my culinary adventures to this day.

From the sizzle of street tacos to the elegance of fine dining, my time in Mexico City left an indelible mark on my palate and my heart. And though I may have bid farewell to the city, its flavors and memories linger on in every dish I create.

At EatinWithElla, I invite you to join me on this epicurean journey. Whether you're a seasoned foodie seeking inspiration or simply hungry for a taste of something new, consider this your passport to the flavors of the world.

When I'm not busy cooking up a storm or serving meals at the soup kitchen, you'll find me exploring the vibrant neighborhoods of Phoenix or jet-setting to far-off destinations, all while indulging in the local cuisine and soaking up the culture.

So, thank you for stopping by EatinWithElla! I'm thrilled to have you along for the ride as we embark on a culinary adventure filled with flavor, passion, and plenty of delicious discoveries. Let's eat our way around the world together!
