¡Hola! My name is Julieta Madrigal, I am new to this city. [... Some... how. No one has answers on that yet.] Por favor I am looking for my family.
We are a very big family, so listing them all may take a while, so if you just happen to know someone with the last name Madrigal, and point me in their direction, or them to mine, I would be very grateful.
[The person with Julieta asks if she has anymore and Julieta pulls another bit of food from her pocket, handing it to them.] Of course of course, eat eat.

A: She can heal you with a meal [Labyrinth]
When Julieta wakes up, she looks around at the absolutely massive kitchen she suddenly found herself in, her mortar and pestle next to her head, and she was sitting on a stool. No wonder she was so uncomfortable! However, as sleep left her mind more and more, she realized several things very quickly.
This is not her kitchen.
This is not Casita.
Her family is not here.
Is she still dreaming? She pinches herself and then winces.
She takes a deep breath trying to calm down. She takes a few more to be sure. Alright, time to think Julieta. She begins pacing in the giant kitchen. She is in a kitchen, not only is she in a kitchen but there are enough supplies to feed the entire Encanto. She had her mortar and pestle, and her apron and dress, which is not what she went to bed in, to be sure.
Julieta examined all the instruments in the kitchen, this was... not a traditional kitchen. Pots, pans, those were the same sure, but the whole thing was incredibly impersonal, stainless steel everywhere.
... Alright, she couldn't resist liking the oven.
She examined everything, opening all the doors and discovering she now quite liked the size of the refrigerator as well.
Maybe this was a dream! DOUBLE ovens with stovetops! Aaaah not a dream, heaven!
Still, she needed to figure out what to do. After examining everything, she found a door. Rather than it opening it up to a building, she immediately was faced with a long corridor going off in either direction.
She tapped her lips in thought, closing her eyes. Alright, she had food, she had water, the sinks were working, she checked. So she could make a plan if this took several days. The first rule of being lost was to stay put.
Were there others in this place? Were there wild animals? Maybe monsters or spirits? Her fingers tapped along her lips as she kept thinking. She then snapped her fingers, a plan in mind. At the very least, she should have something ready if she got hurt or found someone who was. Plus, she couldn't leave the room to venture out without food. She had no idea what was out there.
Grabbing a sack of flour, she propped open the door to the kitchen and got to work cooking, she had already categorized what food she recognized and what she didn't. She'd save the food she didn't know for last for rations if needed. Plus, she would need to actually cook something for her Gift to work. She chose recipes that would yield a lot of results with few ingredients. Arepas were the obvious choice.
Julieta rolled up her sleeves and washed her hands to get to work.
Soon, smells of food filled the air and Julieta was glancing at the door every now and then. She didn't know if she would attract help or harm, she glanced over at the frying pans and knives she had at the ready. She wasn't even sure this would attract any company at all, but she would give it a day or two before she even ventured out into the labyrinth. And she'd have cooked food that could heal her if needed. She heard footsteps and moved to slicing vegetables so she could have a knife in hand, not that she knew how to use it for anything OTHER than cooking but she didn't know who just walked in. She kept her back turned for the moment, trying to stay calm and casual.
"¡Hola! You're just in time, the food is almost ready, here come in, come in."
