During a brief stay in New York, I developed a taste for the empanadas prepared by the Colombians in my Queens neighborhood. Luckily for me (and you) Empanadas El Paisa mobile food wagon prepares the mashed-up mix of beef and potatoes wrapped in a small pocket of corn dough and fried. Nice and fairly crunchy, the empanadas are even better after a dunk in the spot's homemade salsa. El Paisa also serves tacos, burritos, chicharrones and fried plantains. While empanadas may be the perfect snack, there's nothing wrong with making a whole meal out of them. In fact, that's the easiest way to fill up your punch card and earn a free one.
