You know how people are always searching for that wonderful restaurant that is not pretentious, easy on the wallet, and even maybe a hole in the wall, but the food is great? Well, this is one of those places.
They only do empanadas here and they do them Catamarca style. My favorite it the Pikachu which is loaded with cheese, onions and it's even spicy, which if you've been in Argentina a while, you know they don't like spice here. This place delivers on the spice!
If you go in the summer, head over to the register and pick out your wine (there are only two to choose from) and tell him to stick it in the fridge. Then you can proceed with your order. Once they call your order you go back to pick it up and have them get your wine out of the fridge. You don't want to ruin your empanads with Quilmes. Or you can just have a bottle of cold water.
You can then either sit at the small comunal table or any of the bar stools that lign up against the wall and enjoy what I consider the best empanadas in Buenos Aires. read more
