Our next guest is the Chef and Co-Owner of Bayan Ko and Bayan Ko Diner in Ravenswood, Chicago. The diner space was home to Glenn’s Diner for 17 years and now serves Cuban and Filipino staples all day. The OG location a couple doors east is now a tasting menu that allows the team to push boundaries and provide a more curated experience compared to the diner. We explore his journey of moving to Chicago for culinary school, his various restaurant experiences, and meeting his now wife, Raquel Quadreny. His family is his primary motivation for why he currently does what he does. Becoming an owner has allowed him to never miss an important moment with family.
