Well, I think I was here about two years ago! Yes, two years! Anyway, I just wanted to mention that their Chocolate Turtle Empanadas were sinfully delicious! They’re flaky pastries filled with chocolate, caramel, and pecans… rolled in a cinnamon sugar and served warm with vanilla ice cream and drizzled with chocolate and caramel sauces =)
Oh and before I make anyone else angry by sharing some of my fav foods, this is purely subjective!!! Akuryou taisan!

Okay, this one is a little better.
I have to agree that the presentation is eye appealing and it would be a good dessert. The crust got enough amount of flakiness and the cinnamon is a nice touch as a commpliment.
However, I don’t think this particular dessert is for everyone. It just too sweet. The chocolate is a little much and it’s too overpowering. The crust can do so much to balance out the sweetness. The ice cream is great, but it’s not enough to balance it out.
Overall, even for a person with a sweet tooth, it may be too sweet. But, that could leave up for debate.
Btw, I tried out this one after seeing the picture. The review only helps to get an idea what it taste like. :3
