Description
On the ground level of an office building off 59, you’ll find this somewhat secret, friendly café serving up pizza and pasta alongside Ecuadorian fare. We can’t get enough of the homemade empanadas, buttery dough with beef, chicken, spinach-and-cheese, or ham-and-cheese fillings. At lunch the must-order is a traditional Ecuadorian choripán—smoky grilled sausage in a baguette served with homemade chimichurri.
