He began working in clean up and reconstruction but soon moved to the restaurant industry. He worked in multiple kitchens, then as head cook in a Honduran-owned restaurant. In pursuit of more autonomy, he opened a street food vending business in a local flea market with his partner, Gilberto. The two have dabbled in multiple cooking venues across greater New Orleans– including their current restaurant project “Antojitos Garibaldi.” At the same time they have been integral in supporting the LGBTQ+ community through their Miss Gay Latina annual pageants.\nThis is the second  of two films in the 2023 Homegrown Foodways Film Series\nFilm #1: El Camino del Pan a Baltimore\nFilm #2: El Camino del Mole a New Orleans \nThe films are produced by Professor Sarah Fouts, Fernando Lopez, and Andy Dahl (see bios below). Together, the films ask the question: “How do immigrants use food cultures to shape space and place in these Southern cities?” From their work as street vendors to building community through their food traditions, Jose and Ivan have each taken unique approaches to carve their own niches in these urban places.\nBoth films will be available on https://blogs.loc.gov/folklife/  and the Library’s YouTube Channel after their initial premiere dates.\nThe Homegrown Foodways Film Series premieres on the Folklife Today Blog.\n\n\n\nFeaturing\n\n\n\nD.
