Encuentro, open since 2025, wins you over with its refined and evocative atmosphere: a true corner of Mexico in the center of Modena, featuring beautiful murals and bright shades that recall the warm, traditional colors.
The culinary offering is extensive and well-curated. As an appetizer, we started with the Encuentro Empanadas—crispy and flavorful—and then moved on to the highlights: the Tacos with pulled veg, a very tasty gourmet vegetarian option, and the super Eldorado Burrito, generously filled and delicious. Everything was paired with an excellent, fresh, and fruity Sangria.
The service is fast, and the staff is kind and welcoming. A high-quality experience that stands out from the usual standards! Highly recommended to everyone."

You can really feel that the restaurant has its own unique atmosphere. I love murals, and whenever I see this kind of themed artwork in a café, I instantly feel drawn to the place.
I’ve never tried empanadas in my life. While reading your article, Encuentro Empanadas caught my attention the most. Then I thought, “Wait, I’ve heard about them somewhere recently too.” And suddenly I remembered that @pantonetti also mentioned empanadas criollas in his article about Argentina.
I’d love to try them made by an authentic Argentinian or Mexican chef. But for now, I’ll try making them myself with the help of YouTube

Thank you so much for the shoutout! 
You’re in for a treat! Here in Argentina, empanadas are practically an art form, and each region has its own distinctive style and tradition—from tucumanas and salteñas to riojanas and classic criollas. Depending on where you are, fillings can range from hand-cut beef and chicken to lamb or even llama meat up in the Andes!
To get you started on your cooking adventure, I’m sharing a YouTube recipe for our most quintessential and traditional version: empanadas criollas.
