Guillermo Felipe, Carlos Reveron and Daniel Machicao

Cowy Burgers

Chefs Guillermo Felipe, Carlos Reveron and Daniel Machicao have known each other for more than 15 years. When they met, they were just kids in a small high school in Caracas, Venezuela. Now, many years later, after two years of popups in some of Miami’s most recognized spots, they find themselves making burgers in their first brick and mortar restaurant...

Their stories in the kitchen have different origins but converge on their love for food. Carlos worked in a sushi restaurant during college and fell in love with cooking. Guillermo worked for many years in the kitchen, from Italian to French cuisines and Daniel worked in American restaurants in both the back and front of the house. Their joint love for food and the industry itself took them first into food photography and content creation where they worked together to help restaurants improve their online presence. Taking pictures for restaurants gave them a new perspective on the business. In September 2022, they decided to start their own pop-up food project, featuring recipes they developed over the years, centered around the classic American SmashBurger.
