Empanadas Colombianas Luis Panes - Review - Tacoma - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Empanadas are the bread and butter at Luis Panes, where they’re served in half a dozen flavors out of an old breakfast diner. The menu features other Colombian mainstays too, like picada, salchipapas, and arepas, as well as the rare-around-here Colombian tamal: a fat square of masa filled with a whole chicken thigh and then baked in a banana leaf. All the empanadas are available frozen for takeout, along with South American pastries like pandebonos and yucca-based buñuelos. Luis Panes is a solid place for a casual dinner or lunch, or just a giant assortment of empanadas, whatever meal that is." - Meg van Huygen
