Two words: Colombian bacon. Just one bite of the supersized pork lardons — addictingly crisp on the outside — and you’ll be hooked on this family-run BYOB that began as a Latin grocery store. The authentic Argentinian empanadas are equally sinful, crafted with a flaky pie-like crust and packed with a succulent spiced beef blend. Better yet, service is genuine, options are affordable, and lunch is quick. 477 Lancaster Ave., Frazer, (610) 251-0956.
