As childhood friends, Marco and Arturo (better known by their families as Baby and Tootie) lived six houses from each other. They bonded over their shared love for baseball. They spent countless hours playing together at each others homes. Throughout their baseball journey, they learned valuable lessons about teamwork, perseverance, and the importance of supporting one another. Often Marco could not go to the school dances because he had to help his father make chorizo. Arturo’s enthusiasm and willingness to help would allow Marco to finish and both go to the school dance, smelling like chorizo.
Fast forward to their adult lives, these friends discovered another shared passion - food. They both had a natural talent for cooking and loved experimenting with different flavors and cuisines. They often found themselves hosting dinner parties, where their friends and family raved about their culinary skills. One day, while reminiscing about their little league days , an idea struck them - why not combine their love for food with their entrepreneurial sprit? Marco being raised in the butcher business and Arturo‘s love for food, Simply Sabor was born. They started small, catering events for friends and family, and word quickly spread about the delicious food and exceptional service they provided. Their attention to detail, creativity in menu design, and ability to cater to various dietary needs set them apart from the competition. Arturo has now stepped away, but continues to contribute in many ways.
Marco was born in San Francisco and raised in Mountain View, CA. His story is intertwined with a family tradition that shaped his life. Marco’s parents immigrated from Jerez, Zacatecas, Mexico. His father was a skilled butcher, passing down his expertise and knowledge to him. His mother made the carnitas, chicharrones, helped with making chorizo (El Jerezano)
and other artisanal cold meats which were sold in the meat market. She also made her tamales seasonally to sell. Marco did not always enjoy working in the family business, but as he grew older , Marco soaked up every bit of knowledge and honed his skills as a butcher’s apprentice. Marco’s passion for the trade and cooking flourished and embraced the California cuisine.
California cuisine is a culinary style that emerged in the 1970’s in Northern California. It is known for its emphasis on fresh local, and seasonal ingredients, as well as its fusion of various cultural influences. The state’s multicultural population has led to the fusion of various cooking styles and flavors from around the world. Just like past and current chefs, Simply Sabor loves to incorporate Asian, Mexican, Italian, French and Mediterranean influences , to name a few, into their dishes, creating unique and innovative flavor combinations. Don’t be fooled, Marco. loves cooking traditional as well. Through the guidance of his parents, the kick start from Arturo, he embraced his calling and turned it into a thriving business. Marco continues to uphold the family tradition, providing an unforgettable culinary experience.
