Cassava Empanadas

I stumbled across this place while looking on Google Maps. They are listed on Yelp as a caterer (and the ratings and comments there are positive too), but their website shows you can order for takeout (pre-order frozen items then call ahead to have them cooked and ready to pick up, or just order frozen to cook at home). Their items are made with cassava so good for gluten free diners. They ship anywhere in the U.S. too. I plan to visit tomorrow, but has anyone been here before?

Yep! I'm a fan of the cassava rolls (pão de queijo) to bake from frozen. It's been a while since I ordered, but last time I did (pre-pandemic), I placed my order online, specified a pickup time and then drove up for curbside delivery. They don't have a retail storefront — the address is the location of their commercial kitchen.
