Milwaukee native Inés Anguiano loves all things food, marrying her rich Black American culture with her first-generation Mexican heritage. Inés’ family moved to Brooklyn, New York when she was 9, introducing yet another influence that’d go on to shape her material reality and culinary perspective. 

Her work celebrates the foodways of her predecessors while investigating the many delicate interwoven threads of the Black and Latino diaspora. 

Currently managing the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen, she is a regular contributor to the magazine through recipe, video and commercial/advertising work. 

Through her personal work, Inés’ offerings honor the existing culinary cultural archive, strengthening context around them while using her imagination to drive her practice. 

Her chef residencies Chickenshop at Rhodora Wine Bar and Burleigh Fish Fry at Commune have offered opportunities to serve and connect with her community in Brooklyn, where she grew up.
