Baires Empanadas Amsterdam

Strangely enough, the undersigned became crazy (but really) crazy about it before the first time pies (an Argentinian dough snack filled with chicken or beef or vegetables or fish) in Aruba. The sisters of it Boardwalk Hotel (do it!) tip for breakfast Mi Boca Dushi where we could no longer put it down: some greasy empanadas (the Arubans like that, and to be honest, so do we, oops), yes, but the dragon fruit that is also sold here makes up for that. And besides: SO tasty. The ritual was later also followed in Jamaica, where they created a similar snack (a Patti), and the snack was imitated in the Stoof-Diepstaat household (that's what 'we' are called from the back).

And now we can finally get in Amsterdam join us for the fresh Argentinian delicacy. That's plus point 1. Plus point 2 is that they by far not as greasy as in Aruba (not at all) but, plus three, just as tasty. Maybe even a bit tastier, if we're honest. Because that's what they are, to be enjoyed. The empanadas are made from Baires on the Bilderdijkkade at number 25 in a small but handsome bakery on the corner, hidden behind/under large red awnings. A terrace is also available, if you can't wait (a good chance). dances
