About Teresita Reyes

[edit]

Teresita "Mama Sita" C. Reyes was born in Manila on May 11, 1917, the eldest child of Justice Alex Reyes and Engracia "Aling Asiang" Cruz-Reyes, founder of The Aristocrat Restaurant.[4] She had an interest in Filipino food and raised a business devoted to creating recipes and selling sauce mixes, vinegars and sauces. Reyes and her company became well known in the Philippines and amongst Filipinos living abroad. In 2013, a 10 peso postage stamp was issued in honor of her memory by the Philippine government.[5][6] At least two Mama Sita cookbooks have been produced, Mama Sita's Cookbook (1996) and Mama Sita's Homestyle Recipes (2010).[citation needed]
