The signature

Two pans. One unforgettable spread.

Our seafood paella is the centerpiece people photograph before they eat. The mixed and vegetarian versions keep everyone fed, and our biggest pans cover a hundred-plus guests from a single cook.

Next to it, the live pasta station turns dinner into a choose-your-own moment — carbonara, amatriciana, puttanesca, alfredo, pesto, finished to order while you watch.

See it live

The cooking is the entertainment.

This is what shows up at your event: live fire, a giant pan filling with color, and a crowd gathering before a single plate is served. No steam-table trays wheeled in from a kitchen across town — the chef cooks in front of your guests, start to finish.

Press play to see a real La Peregrina cook in a Miami backyard. That's the energy we bring to weddings, quinces, corporate parties, and birthdays across Miami-Dade.

By cuisine

Latin heart, Italian hands — Spanish and African roots.

Cuban cooking is the meeting of three worlds on one plate. Spanish settlers brought the slow-roasted pork, the sofrito, the rice and the bright citrus mojo; West African hands brought the plantains, the root vegetables like yuca and malanga, and a bold, soulful way with seasoning. Over generations those traditions grew together into the dishes we cook today — lechón asado, ropa vieja, moros y cristianos, picadillo, tostones and yuca con mojo. That blend is the Latin heart of our table, set right beside the Italian hands behind our live pasta station.

Cuban classics for the Hialeah quince, an Italian pasta station for the Coral Gables wedding, a seafood spread for the waterfront party. Tap a style to see how we'd build it.

Booked again, recommended often

The paella was the whole party. The chef cooked it right in our backyard and people are still talking about it.

Booked them for our company holiday party in Doral. On time, easy to deal with, and the pasta station had a line all night.

Andrés P.Corporate event · Doral

Wedding cocktail hour plus a late-night pasta bar. Our guests went back three times. We'd book them again in a heartbeat.
