The best way to spend National Empanada Day is at Cuba Libre. The restaurant celebrates by serving empanadas for $1 each during happy hour.

Fans of the stuffed pastry can stop by between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Monday, April 8, to get the deal. It will be offered exclusively at the 30-seat bar/lounge area.

There will be three different $1 empanadas available, all served with aji-sour cream dipping sauce.

• Del Campo – Pulled pork, roasted poblano, charred tomatoes
• Picadillo – Cienfuegos-style ground beef, potatoes, Manzanilla olives and raisins
• De la Casa – Hand-chopped chicken, corn, pepper jack cheese

Pair your empanadas with one of the happy hour drink specials, like the $5 classic mojito.
