MEET ...Eddie Porrello

My mother and grandparents left Cuba when she was a baby and she was raised in Caracas, Venezuela - where she met my father.

Born in Miami (Hialeah) to a Cuban mother and Venezuelan father.

Eddie's Heritage & Background

Grew up primarily around my mother's family since they all immigrated to Miami in the 80s. Lots of Cuban traditions in my family around the holidays (noche buena is my favorite) and just general weekend dance parties with my many many cousins, uncles and aunts (everyone is a tio or tia).Highly recommend trying both Cuban food (ropa vieja + congris + maduros should hit the spot) and Venezuelan food (arepas are amazing for breakfast, lunch, or dinner).

If anyone is curious and speaks Spanish, my uncle interviewed my abuela about her life before she passed and made a ~15 minute Youtube video. She was an incredible person and lived an amazing life. I was practically raised in her house!
