Taqueando with Bill Esparza

Who’s Really Taking the Good Jobs? The Truth About Undocumented Workers in LA’s Kitchens with Ray Garcia


Listen Later

In this new episode of Taqueando with Bill Esparza, Bill sits down with celebrated Los Angeles chef Ray Garcia to break down the realities undocumented workers face in the restaurant industry — and the complex, often unspoken reasons why these workers are so essential to keeping kitchens running across LA and beyond. Ray also teases exciting plans for the return of his legendary restaurant Broken Spanish.


Plus, Bill recaps recent standout meals: Daniel Patterson’s Jaca Social Club pop-up — a preview of the much-anticipated Jaca coming soon to West Third Street — and the Disciples of the Corn dinner at Evil Cooks in El Sereno, a showcase of the next wave of Chicano culinary talent following in the footsteps of chefs like Josef Centeno, Wes Avila, and Ray Garcia himself.
