'We want to make food people travel for': Ang pagdala ng isang Ilocano cook ng Ilocos empanada sa Sunshine Coast

Para sa ilan, ang Ilocos empanada ay isang Pinoy snack na nakilala nila online; pero para kay Bryan Dalere, ito ay paborito niyang comfort food mula sa kanyang pagkabata.

Key Points

• Pinapatakbo ni Bryan Dalere at ng kanyang partner na si Adam ang Lasa snack house.
• Pinakakilala sila para sa kanilang Ilocos empanada.
• Ang Ilocos empanada ay may malutong at orange na shell at may laman na gawa sa Ilocos longganisa, gulay at itlog.

I got in touch with a Filipino grocery that ordered 40 pieces of our Ilocos empanada. The owner wasn't sure, but she was supportive. The empanadas were sold out in six hours...They ordered another 200 immediately after that.
