High in the Sierras, you will find The Truckee Food Shop, a curated deli and market serving fresh food all year-round. Our food is prepared daily and sourced from organic farms, area ranchers, fishermen, and local co-ops. 

We offer a full take-out menu made from the seasonal bounty of California and Nevada ingredients.  We prepare delicious family-style “oven-ready” meals for any occasion. In addition to our regular menu, we offer weekly specials, made-to-order sandwiches, and farm-to-fork fare.  Please ask about our vegetarian and gluten-free options.  We also offer catering for private dinners and special events.

About Truckee Food Shop

MEET THE CHEF

EDUARDO DIAZ DE LEON

eduardo.jpg

My passion for food began through early influences of refined Mexican cooking.  I was raised in the agricultural region of  Guanajuato, a colonial mountainside town in central Mexico.  My clearest childhood memories come from my grandmother’s kitchen where the subtle perfumes and vibrant colors of true Mexican cuisine were always present. I understood from a young age that Mexican gastronomy, cultivated over centuries, is infinitely more intricate and rich than simply tacos and tortillas.  

 

After I finished law school, I moved to Vancouver, to attend the Dubrulle International Culinary and Hotel Institute of Canada. There, I honed my talent in French cuisine and went on to explore other global styles of cooking, including Asian and Middle Eastern.

After graduating, I moved my way up to sous chef and then a private chef, cooking for US Presidents, Oprah Winfrey, PM Justin Trudeau, and many others. My appreciation for travel and adventure mixed with inspiration from my father eventually led me to California. In 2019,  I opened The Truckee Food Shop, and set out to develop a menu that incorporated my culinary training, Mexican heritage, and love for fresh California ingredients.  My nomadic cooking style is always highlighted on the menu.  Enjoy!
