"Caprese Empanada All of the baked goods at this Argentine cafe are worth the trip, from sticky dulce de leche-injected churros to pastries filled with ham. Yet, what’s really stuck in our heads like the chorus of “Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl)” is Boca’s caprese empanada. It is what it sounds like—fresh mozzarella, basil, and tomatoes packed inside of dough. But a blazing oven fuses the fillings and makes the whole thing taste like a luxe Totino’s pizza roll. The herbs are fragrant throughout, the tomatoes burst, and the cheese becomes delicious volcanic magma that’s safe to eat. " - aimee rizzo
