Paparepas - Review - Capitol Hill - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Some empanadas are just little snacks. Others could cause a welt if thrown at someone’s face (don’t do this). Paparepas, a Venezuelan spot on Capitol Hill, serves the latter. These girthy, meal-sized bricks have tasty fillings like pulled chicken, sticky cheese, and a combination of chicken and cheese. The best part about them, though, is the shell, which has both a snappy fried exterior and a cakey inside similar to corn dog batter. Another upside: they stay scorching hot for approximately a decade, so be careful biting into the lava." - Aimee Rizzo
