Former Coni’Seafood Chef Closes His Inglewood Restaurant Checo’s Seafood 106 Underground | Eater LA
"An offshoot run by the Cossio family where Peñuelas was running the kitchen in 2011 when the late Jonathan Gold lauded his pescado zarandeado in an LA Weekly review; it was an important formative station in which he learned Nayarit-style barra fría (cold bar), barra caliente (hot bar), and parrilla (grill). Peñuelas was a frequent customer before joining the operation and eventually married the owner's daughter, learning the techniques and dishes that helped build his reputation." - Bill Esparza
