Grayson Corrales honed her craft in some of Seattle's top kitchens, but her approach to food has always been firmly rooted in family.
"My grandmother is the person who taught me how to cook," said Corrales, chef/owner of MariPili Tapas Bar. "Food was always so integral at (my grandparent's) house. Making sure that everyone was fed was number one. Not only that, but fed well and making sure there was a sense of community at the table was always really important to them."
So it only makes sense that Corrales' debut restaurant, MariPili Tapas Bar in Capitol Hill, celebrates her grandmother's impact on her cooking.
"My grandmother as a cook was always very meticulous and perfectionistic. I learned a lot from her in the sense of you can't cut corners, you can't make it go faster, you have to do each step in the right order and each step needs to be performed correctly and with care," explained Corrales. "That's something that I think is absolutely invaluable in my cooking that my grandmother instilled in me."
