Celebrating International Women’s Day at Perla Mexican Cuisine!

Perla Mexican Cuisine is not just a restaurant; it’s a culinary gem born from the passion and dedication of Chef Laura Fabiola and her daughter, Ana Laura Padilla. As a family-owned and women-owned establishment, their commitment goes beyond crafting traditional Mexican dishes – it’s about creating a vibrant community center in the heart of Santa Ana.

Perla Mexican Cuisine is a welcoming space where the community gathers, connects, and celebrates. By offering job opportunities, Perla contributes to the local economy and fosters a sense of belonging for everyone who walks through its doors.
At Perla, Women’s Day isn’t just a once-a-year celebration – it’s intricately embedded in the essence of every dish.

Let’s raise a toast not only to Chef Laura Fabiola, Ana Laura Padilla, and the extraordinary women behind Perla, but also to every empowered and amazing woman who, through their remarkable contributions, enrich the lives of those they touch.
