What a delightful shop that everyone should visit! The owner took so much time with us answering all of our questions about his pies. We purchased 4 slices, and they were all delicious!

Bought a pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving, best pumpkin pie I have ever had!
We're just two guys (Oreste from New York, and Deon from Cape Town) trying to take over the world with our baked goodness!
We make the most delicious empanadas and pies daily, using only the freshest ingredients sourced from local purveyors.
We put our heart and soul into our cooking so you can experience clean, delicious, homemade food, just as we did growing up.
Empanadas and pies are our passion!
We started making them about a decade ago in Chicago, mostly for special occasions and celebrations and recently decided to open our first retail outlet, after living in South Africa for 5 years. Our original shop was called Empanada Mama and The Pie Man, located in East Lakeview, Chicago.
