Perth Amboy locals have the opportunity to dine like celebrities by visiting the Chef Deluxe Me Latin fusion food truck located at Washington Park. Chef and owner Manaury Castro has cooked for stars like Fat Joe, Cardi B, and Bow Wow, and is known for his signature dishes such as five-cheese mac and cheese, crispy shrimp, and beef sliders. Castro puts a Latin twist on all of his creations, reflecting his Dominican heritage.
Castro’s Instagram account @chefdeluxeme has nearly 40,000 followers, solidifying his status as both a chef and influencer. He has cooked for various celebrities, including preparing a feast for Cardi B’s daughter’s birthday party and catering for Bow Wow’s birthday celebrations on a yacht in Miami and at his home in Georgia.
Despite starting as an auxiliary police officer, Castro’s passion for food led him to become a private chef and eventually launch his own food truck. What started as a side gig cooking for parties quickly grew into a successful business. The Chef Deluxe Me food truck can be found at Washington Park on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, as well as at events like the Perth Amboy Dominican Festival.
