Im Chef Gilma DeLaCruz, Chef for El Caribe Food Truck and Catering services. I was born in New Jersey but at the age of 5yrs old my mom moved to the Dominican Republic. I grew up in the kitchen with my mom, aunts, a family of cooks. This is how my journey and interest for the kitchen began. Through out the years i went from job to job looking for better opportunities but it was never enough. Until in 2015 i decided to go to culinary school at GRCC and proudly graduated in 2017. I been marry for 12 years to Edward DeLaCruz, we have a daughter name Montserrat. As a chef my passion is to share with the community my culture and food experience, make people happy with one bite of a tasteful meal.
