Shallot We?
The Egipto Rico

Tahini meets sofrito — our signature house sauce and the perfect taste of both cultures in one bite.
Aioli Oop

Garlic aioli. Creamy, savory, and good on just about everything.
Mayo and ketchup, the way it's supposed to be. No notes, no apologies.
More Than Empanadas.
Two cultures. One table. Your celebration.
The empanadas may be what brought you here, but they’re only the beginning. For events, we create full Puerto Rican and Egyptian-inspired spreads built around your occasion — and everything we serve is 100% halal.
There’s no one-size-fits-all catering menu. Tell us what you’re celebrating, how many guests you’re feeding, and what you have in mind. We’ll build a menu around your event and send you a custom quote.
100% HALAL — EVERY DISH, EVERY EVENT
The more we know, the better we can tailor your menu.

Before You Order

Batch Minimum
Everything is made and portioned by hand, by flavor. Give us at least one week, and more time for large or multi-flavor orders.
Lead Time
Tell us before you order. We work in a shared kitchen, so cross-contact may occur and we cannot guarantee an allergen-free product.
Deposit
A 25% deposit confirms your order and delivery date. The balance is due before delivery.
