Two new empanadas just joined the group chat 👀
🌶️ Chicken Fajita: seasoned chicken, sautéed green peppers + onions, all packed inside our signature crust.
🍫 Sweet Ricotta: housemade sweet cream ricotta filling + chocolate chips. Basically a cannoli in empanada form… so yeah, you need one.
Get the Chicken Fajita for dinner and the Sweet Ricotta for dessert. A balanced meal, if you ask us. 😌
Both empanadas are available starting now at Carol Stream, Morton Grove will have the dessert empanada this weekend!

Okayyyy we got a new little treat in the freezer 👀🍨
Halo-Halo Ice Cream from Candy’s Creamery is officially at BOTH Savory Crust locations starting TODAY!
If you’ve never had halo-halo, it’s a Filipino dessert packed with all kinds of sweet, creamy, fruity goodness. Basically a little bit of everything in the best way possible. 🇵🇭
And this ice cream version?? SO GOOD. Handmade in small batches by Candi Creamery in Geneva, so you already know it’s not your average grocery store pint. Grab one after your empanadas. Or before 🙂
Available now at Morton Grove + Carol Stream while we’ve got ’em!

Our Pandan Horchata is creamy, lightly sweet + full of that warm, vanilla-y, almost coconut-y pandan flavor we grew up loving. Topped with whipped cream + toasted coconut because obviously we had to do the most. 😌
If you know pandan, you already know. If you don’t… this is your sign to come find out. 👀

Orange chicken has entered the chat. 🍊🍚 We’re open today until 8pm and all week, so come by and grab a bowl (and maybe an empanada while you’re at it).
Also, don’t forget to stop by the We Are Not Bots Art Show this Friday for the opening reception! One of our own team members will be showcasing and selling their artwork, and we’d love to see our community come out and support them. We’ll be providing empanadas (with sauce, of course!) and churros.
Check out our last post for all the details on this weekend’s show. Hope to see you there! 🧡
