Chef Javier has been hard at work in his test kitchen perfecting his empanadas for a planned Spanglish Eats launch in April at the City Heights Farmers Market on Saturdays.

The menu will have your choice beef, pork or chicken baked empanadas and a traditional, Ortega family favorite: crispy beef/pork pastelitos made with a corn meal masa (pictured above) – all served with fresh salsas and pico!

Stay tuned for the official launch date and additional future locations.
