If you browse through there, you will find that this was one of my FAVORITE places to eat in Playa!!! Despite my shouting her praises to the heavens, Stephani (La Dona) seems to have closed up shop. We talked to her over a few weeks last summer about buying her place, but we decided (thanks, in part, to some wise advice from some local Playa friends) that it would be too hard to own and operate a restaurant "in abstentia."

If you manage to track her down, please let me know. I tried sending her an email a few months ago, but it got bounced back...

Those were the BEST freakin' empanadas, and MAN my wife and I could eat like KINGS for about $4 U.S.!!!
