In 2013, after traveling on vacation to Puerto Rico for the first time, Alexis fell in love with the island. The Phoenix native, returned to AZ, put in his 2 weeks' notice, sold his car, and bought a one-way ticket to San Juan.

While living there, Alexis met his partner, Juan, and it was love at first sight. Juan, who was born and raised in Puerto Rico, was working as a restaurant manager. Shortly after beginning their relationship, they began making plans to start a business together.

In the fall of 2014, Juan and Alexis moved to Phoenix. Craving the taste of authentic Puerto Rican food and unsatisfied with the options available to them, it wasn’t long before they made plans to combine their strengths to launch a mobile food business.
