Traditional Food


The traditional food at María Pinto includes cheese and pino-filled empanadas and sopaipillas. Each type of empanada came in a different form and size, including mini and large pino empandas and half-moon shaped cheese empanadas. These homemade delicacies are served with a side of pebre, which is a spicy mix of chopped tomatoes, onions, and herbs that is commonly used as a topping. A side dish of chopped tomatoes and peppers is also available for the less daring diners. The most popular beverages are different types of sodas such as Coca Light and Sprite and mineral water with gas. For dessert, there is always a hearty slice of "Mil Hojas" cake layered with manjar - a thick dulce de leche cream. Regardless of the meal, the food in María Pinto is much more flavor packed than the typical Chilean dish. Bon Apetit!
