If you've got a sweet tooth, you absolutely cannot go past these Empanada Brownies. Just picture a brownie, wrapped in sweet pastry, coated with cinnamon sugar, injected with a healthy dose of melted chocolate and served with a scoop of ice cream. Yes, it's decadent. Yes, you *need* this in your life.

And that was the correct order 🔥 Corn masa cups topped with tomato salsa, halloumi, red pepper crema, queso, spring onions. So morish we begged the chef to make it come in twos (you're welcome).
