Small, completely vegetarian stand that serves Taiwanese street food snacks such as shaved ice, Taiwan style soy milk, stuffed cakes, and Taiwanese empanadas (a better description would be savory pancakes). The pancakes, soy milk and shaved ice (provided you only get fruit toppings and say no to the condensed milk) are vegan. Only one very small table. This is purely a grab-and-go type place. Directly across the street from La Esquina Asiatica. Reported open March 2024. Open Mon-Sat 9:00am-6:00pm.

Perfect

The empanadas are just divine. Filled with cabbage and tofu. So warming and the chili sauce is so spicy and tasty. They’re very cheap too, only 5q.

More than a filling

Not outstanding stuff but rich, sizeable and freshly fried, these would be a good option if you're hungry/in a rush/want something cheap. Definitely pair it with a cold soy milk.

Yummy Empanadas

The empanadas were very yummy. Fried dough filled with veggies and tofu. Everything but healthy but very delicious. We also had a garantizada (?) which is some typical ice, we didn't like it though haha

Interesting fast food

The menu is short (empanadas, granizadas, pastel, soy milk), but the empanadas (now 4Q each) are the perfect snack to go. They are filled with tofu, cabbage, seasoned with cinnamon and then fried.

Pros: Unusual vegan snack

Cons: Not many options, Plastic for take away

Great place

The empanadas (Q3 each) are absolutely delicious, a funny Latin America / Asian mix. 100% recommended!

Delicious, simple and cheap

The empanadas are just great. They're filled with tofu and cabbage and come with a sauce. One costs Q3!

ideal

I frequented this place every couple days while living in Xela. The empanadas are so perfectly savory and the soy milk is cold and refreshing. I miss my visits here!

Savory pancakes.

Taiwanese street food run by an older Taiwanese family. Super cheap snacks to go.

About ~3Q for one of their savory pancakes. A bit hard to find if you're unfamiliar with Quetzaltenango (It's across the street from La Esquina Asiatica, you can find a map of Esquina on their facebook page)

They sell soy milk but it is the Asian/Taiwanese kind so don't expect something akin to Silk/whatever your preferred brand of soy milk is.
