At Lola's, we say that Our Flavor Runs In The Family, and truly it does. Our Lola's Original is a recipe that goes back generations; back to the Philippines where my grandfather taught my mother how to make the family's everyday spicy, garlicky table sauce.

Growing up, this sauce was always on our table. My mom would make it fresh with every day and I loved it, but think much of it, until one day I took some to work on a whim for a company potluck and wowed all my coworkers with it.

We've grown a lot since then, but ultimately Lola's is the story of a kid who loved his mom's cooking so much that he needed to share it with the world, and named his company after her.
