Readers have been telling me that the Ilocos Empanada at Katipunan Avenue is better than the Ilocano Empanada at Tiendesitas. I thought of checking it out to see for myself.
An Ilocos Empanada costs 40 pesos each which is slightly more expensive than the Tiendesitas version .

My verdict:
Ilocos Empanada- I like the thick crust though but I don’t like the mongo sprouts.
Ilocano Empanada- Still my first choice. I like that there is more green papaya.





CAN YOU SEND ME THE RECIPE, PLEASE!!!!
The Ilocos Empanada along Katipunan may just be the closest one to the original. I haven’t tried the one at Tiendesitas but the stall in Market! Market! is a sorry representation of the real Ilocos empanada.
I haven’t tried the Market !Market! version.
