Joe eating at Portillo's

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY JOE EATS WORLD!

My name is Joe Morales. I’m originally from the Pacific Northwest, more specifically, Southwest Washington. Currently, I’m cooking for a Michelin Recommended restaurant in Chicago, Illinois (the first city I ever fell in love with).

I’ve lived in Northern California on a 60’ sailboat, traveled the Southwest in a Jeep without air conditioning, spent some time in Las Vegas, lived in a cabin on 56 acres in upstate New York, and I even lived in a Bluebird Wanderlodge motorhome traveling around the Midwest, New England, and Florida. Saying I love traveling is an understatement. You can usually find me traveling to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico every year trying to eat all the tacos and hanging out poolside while trying to relax between bites.

Beyond all the travels, I thought I would settle down, grow up, and head back to school. I decided to get a degree in my second love, cooking. In 2015 I attended culinary school to obtain my Associate of Applied Science degree. After a lot of hard work and sacrifices, I received my degree in culinary arts, even being named Valedictorian (YAY!) and graduated the top of my class.

I started Joe Eats World in order to document my culinary journey and travel exploits.
