On This Day In 2009: Chef Iliana de la Vega’s El Naranjo Mobile
El Naranjo Mobile From Chef Iliana de la Vega In Austin Texas
Chef Iliana de la Vega is the only professional cook in Austin who nixtamalizes, grinds, and produces her own corn dough in-house. It’s a lot of work, and takes serious dedication. And machinery. On July 23rd 2009 we took the short drive down to her El Naranjo Mobile to see if her chops lived up to the hype surrounding her entry into the Austin food scene.
