Diana Tapiz, Chef-Owner of Tres Fuegos Cocina, carries with her a legacy steeped in the warmth of family kitchens.

Located in Chula Vista (South San Diego), her journey began with childhood memories of shaping masa alongside her mother and grandmother in their Tijuana home, finding joy and pride in every tortilla she crafted. From her mother, Diana learned not only the art of cooking but also the dedication required to run a kitchen with love and precision. Her mother's passing in 2019 left Diana with a dream echoing her mother's words about the power of food. With courage kindled by her mother's spirit, Diana embarked on the path of entrepreneurship, founding Tres Fuegos Cocina to share her passion for cooking with the world.

Diana's journey isn't just about cooking; it's a tale of love, faith, resilience, and dedication. As the first approved kitchen in San Diego County and an advocate for the MEHKO program, Diana passionately empowers aspiring chefs, particularly women, to chase their culinary dreams.
