La Gringa Taqueria
The Cali-style fresh-Mex restaurant (which serves tacos, burritos, salads and more) was named after co-owner Henry Fernandez's wife.
"I named it La Gringa because my wife Adalis is the whitest Puerto Rican Hispanic I have ever seen," he says.
La Gringa is the term used to describe a native English-speaking female.
