The Best Empanadas & Pastelitos In Seattle
"It’s easy to get carried away at this cash-only Mexican bakery in South Park where you’re given a tray and tongs to pluck pastries from baking racks around the shop like you’re picking fruit in an orchard. And while we love their bright pink conchas and slabs of buttery pound cake, it would be wrong to leave the premises without an empanada. These dough semicircles are packed with creamy custard, shiny pineapple glaze, or, our favorite, pumpkin puree. With just a hint of sweetness, the squash flavor shines here, and would kick ass at a Thanksgiving dessert buffet." - aimee rizzo, gabe guarente, carlo mantuano
