Our founder spent five months in Argentina where he fell in love with Argentine empanadas. He realized that the only way he could continue to enjoy them when he returned to Michigan was to learn to make them himself. This was a fun and enjoyable experience. Everyone in Argentina knows someone who makes the best empanadas in the world. It was simply a matter of learning recipes and techniques from as many experts as possible. The Papanadas we offer are based upon the most popular empanadas in the land of empanadas, Argentina.
