Lado|B|erlin is thrilled to announce that the fifth edition of Latin American Empanadas Week will take place between the 3rd and 6th of October in Berlin, bringing all the flavors of South America with an economical menu priced at only 10€ for all Berliners to enjoy.

We showcase the very best with our participating restaurants representing the cultures and cuisines of Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, and Italy as an invited guest.

Berliners will find it easy to navigate the city with our Latin American Empanada Week Map on our website, making it simple for everyone to locate every restaurant and find directions with ease. Lado|B|erlin is the creator of the Latin American Restaurants Map of Berlin, which this time will exclusively feature the Empanadas Restaurants at the Festival website.

How does the Festival work? Every restaurant creates its own Empanada Menu for 10€, showcasing a part of their culture. For instance, Colombians will feature typical Tres Leches and Aguapanelas, while Chileans will offer red wine with a dulce de leche alfajor. Whichever restaurant you choose, you will be served from a 10€ menu from the 3rd to the 8th of October. Each location has its own working hours, which are published on our website, and we will communicate them daily to all our followers.

A bit of history
The Latin American Empanadas festival was founded by Manuel Sierra Alonso in 2020 with only seven locations. During that year, several restaurants had to close or were in dire straits due to the pandemic. Sierra Alonso’s desire to give them visibility is what drove him to carry on with the festival. The other idea behind the festival, and why it is celebrated around the time of German Reunification Day, is to celebrate the union between Germans and Latin Americans living in their adopted country, sharing their stories, food, culture, and creating something special together.

The Latin American Empanadas Week will take place from the 3rd to the 6th of October 2023 at nineteen locations throughout Berlin.
