El Bayú de Wela Sara, with its authentic "Taíno" Puerto Rican theme, was created by Chef Iram Ayala in the memory of his grandmother, Sara. She was the heart and soul of the family; making her home the center of every family reunion.

"WELA" stands for "ABUELA" (which means grandmother). It was "Wela Sara" who planted the seed that would through the years flourish to become Chef Ayala's passion for cooking. She would always say: "Aquí se cocina con mucho amor y cariño". These words became the key to motivating and inspiring Chef Ayala's traditional Puerto Rican cuisine, which brings truly authentic native flavors to the table and create an unforgettably remarkable culinary experience.
