Update Welcome to the World of BreeSky's QuesadillasIf you think you've tasted every kind of quesadilla, think again. BreeSky's Quesadillas in Santa Ana brings a unique twist to this beloved dish, offering a menu crafted from the heart and inspired by heritage. The standout feature here is the quesiglia frita, often mistaken for empanadas but undeniably distinct in texture and flavor. A Culinary Legacy of FlavorFor Bree, the founder, her venture into the culinary world is more than just serving food—it's about making cultural connections and keeping cherished memories alive. Growing up with Guatemalan parents, she remembers enjoying similar dishes from food carts in Downtown L.A. Bree’s quesadillas are a reflection of her roots; they're made from masa, creating a crispy yet chewy delight that showcases her culinary journey and roots. "I get a lot of people saying they’re empanadas," Bree explained, emphasizing the unique crunch of her creation. "But mine are more crunchy. I think it just depends where you’re from." From Struggle to Success: Bree’s JourneyAs a single mother, Bree's journey hasn't been easy. Moving to Orange County with her son in search of a better life and school experience fueled her ambition. BreeSky is more than just a name—it's a blend of her identity and her son's, with a logo symbolizing Skyler's autism, a story that infuses more meaning into her culinary craft. “I told myself before I turn 30 that I have to figure out a way to get by better financially,” Bree shared. It reflects a universal struggle, resonating with many parents who seek to better provide for their children. Starting with humble beginnings, Bree recalls selling just one quesadilla on one slow day in Glendale. Yet, it was the viral success from social media influencers and a loyal customer base that turned the tide towards success. Why You Need to Try BreeSky's QuesadillasWith flavors like cheese, tinga, potato, and chorizo, each quesadilla is created freshly to order and fried to perfection. Although the wait may be longer than expected, the satisfaction from each bite proves worthwhile. Prices range from $13.50 for three quesadillas, with additional beverage options drawing diners in for a complete experience. A standout recommendation is the raja with melty cheese, which pairs delightfully with the crunch of the masa. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not try all three variations?
