El Meson’s Chef Pedro Angel Garcia was born in Cuba and grew up in New York City where he worked in his father’s restaurant, Los Parados, as a short order cook. There he learned the basics of chopping vegetables, cutting meat, and making coffee. Garcia moved to Houston and opened El Meson Restaurant with his father in 1981. He learned about food and wine the old fashioned way, buying, selling, cooking and tasting. He took the helm of the family business after his father passed away in 1992 and began turning out regular Spanish wine dinners winning recognition and acclaim.
