“It all started when we were serving Bacon Empanadas at Kettering’s ‘Bacon Fest’,” said Bill Castro, owner of El Meson. “We started thinking about all of the other creative empanadas that we could make and decided to create this limited special menu for everyone to try this week!”
From a “Bacon Empanada” to a gluten free “Colombian Veggie Empanada” the restaurant will be offering a total of seven different empanadas in addition to their standard fare.
“We have had empanadas on the menu for a long time, but we were excited to take this Labor Day weekend as an opportunity for our chefs to get creative with this customer favorite item,” Castro said. “We’re very excited to serve a large variety of different empanadas, both meat and vegetarian, for all of our guests to enjoy.”
