October: Official Month Of Pizza And Empanadas

Did you know that October is National Pizza Month? It also happens to be Hispanic Heritage Month. The two happen to combine very well, and luckily in South Florida there is no shortage of restaurants in which one can celebrate both at the same time.
• At Chef Tito's Pizzeria, pizza is just one of the many offerings available at this Argentine restaurant. Try an empanada with that pie, or if you're really hungry, there are plenty of parrillada options.
• There's always a Rey's Pizza nearby for Cuban pizza. It's definitely...different. The dough is chewier, the sauce is sweeter, and the toppings are meat-heavy: think chorizo or picadillo (ground beef) or ham. You can even get fried plantains on your pie.
• El Tamarindo Restaurant and Coal Fired Pizza, a Salvadoran/pizza restaurant, offers an interesting mix of Central American meals along with pizzas, although the latter have decidedly Italian toppings (prosciutto, sausage, anchovies, olives, pepperoni, etc.)
