Lucy De Leon named Oregon’s first Latina winner of the national Remarkable Women Award (2026)

Lucy De Leon, CEO of Salsas Locas and founder of La Patroncita and Madrina Cocina Mexicana, has been named one of Nexstar Media Group’s 2026 Remarkable Women.

The national award, which launched in 2020, celebrates women who inspire, lead, and pave the way for others to succeed. Each year, from thousands of nominees, one woman is chosen from each of Nexstar’s 125 U.S. markets.

Lucy is honored to be included in the 2026 cohort of 125 winners, and is especially proud to be the first Latina recipient from Oregon.

She shared: “This award means more than I can put into words. It is for all the hard-working women who came before me, who are working alongside me, and who are still dreaming. This moment is proof that our story matters, our work matters, and that we belong in every space we step into.”

The 2026 award ceremony will take place in Nashville on March 7. Lucy will direct her $1,000 donation award to the Oregon-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit Friends of Seasonal and Service Workers, which assists seasonal, farm and service workers struggling for collective solutions to their poverty conditions. @lucydeleonbautista by @madrinapdx

Why wait until dinner for a margarita when lunch is calling?
Join us from 11 AM–3 PM for a refreshing margarita paired with sizzling, freshly made carne asada tacos. Add an order of our fresh guacamole and crispy chips, and you’ve got the perfect midday escape.
Lunch just got a whole lot better.
