With a shared passion for their culture, these two friends decided to bring to Minneapolis a piece of their beloved Argentina through its cuisine. Nico and Diego have shared a friendship for many years.
Their background in traditional family owned neighborhood restaurants in Argentina gives them the perfect balance of formal culinary education and experience.
Empanadas are simple, tasty and convenient. Their popularity has spread beyond the traditional countries like Argentina to become truly international. You’re never more than a few yards away from an empanada wherever you travel in Argentina, and you’re all the better for it. Empanada literally means “wrapped in bread” but this description does not do justice to the wonder of this Argentine staple. But don’t make the mistake of believing all empanadas are created equal. Made from scratch and handcrafted individually, our empanadas meet the highest standards of quality, freshness and seasonality combining both modern-creative and traditional Argentinian styles of cooking.
