While living in Glendale, 16-year old Armando and his siblings were hard workers and always had a passion for their moms’ food. The family enjoyed getting together for BBQ’s to eat and to practice their skills on the grill. In July of 2009, on Father’s Day, Armando and his family opened up the first La Palma off of Pearblossom Hwy. in Palmdale CA. Customers were delighted and neighbors impressed.
