About
La Cocinera Choyera

From Baja Sur to your table.

I’m Malia Loaiza, a Culinary Arts graduate and chef creating gastronomic experiences.

“Choyero” is a word for someone from Baja California Sur. La Cocinera Choyera is my way of honoring where I come from and the culture that shaped me.

My work brings together local ingredients, regional traditions, and the people behind each product, creating menus that reflect the character of this place.

One woman. One kitchen. One territory. Many ways to share it.

Reviews

Chef Malia created a creative, healthy, and absolutely delicious menu for our family retreat — waking up to her beautiful breakfasts each day was amazing. Organic, local and international flavors, and the warmest care, all in the privacy of our home. We love Malia and can’t wait to have her back!

Malia catered a multi-course dinner for my 40th and delivered wildly beyond my expectations. Collaborative, kind, and so talented — a stunning setup, some of the best cocktails I’ve ever had, and food that was beyond delicious, topped with the most beautiful passion fruit cake. 10/10!
