About this Episode

On this episode of The Creative Dad Pod, we’re hanging out with Edgar Nava — co-owner of Correa’s Mariscos and Cocina. Edgar grew up in Los Angeles, where cultures (and flavors) collide. Now he’s blending that rich mix into a fresh LA-style take on Mariscos. Running a restaurant is no joke, but Edgar finds his composure and pleasure in the chaos — thanks to good food, loyal regulars, and a strong Northeast LA creative community. After growing up around the family business, he's now raising his family in the same world. Edgar stops by to talk about being a dad in the kitchen, being two places at once, and the real-life lessons that come from growing up in a hustle-driven, flavor-filled environment. Partner to Dulce and father to Mila welcome to the pod, Edgar Nava.
