WEEKLY DISH: OAKLAND NAMED TOP FOOD SCENE

We’re glad to hear that Sabores del Sur in Walnut Creek is expanding its hours. We love the story behind the restaurant, too: Chef/owner Guisell Osorio, who was born in Chile, realized that if she wanted to eat her favorite authentic dishes from home, she was going to have to make them herself.

Save room for dessert. Her alfajores are to die for.

SABORES DEL SUR, A SOUTH AMERICAN CAFE IN WALNUT CREEK

This is where it all began for me. The Alfajores are the stuff that dreams are made of - buttery, delicate and crumbly shortbread cookies filled with a rich layer of dulce de leche and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Years ago I sampled this cookie at one of the local street food festivals and one bite completely bewitched my taste buds and captivated my attention, which is saying a lot if you have ever wandered through said festivals!

THE GOOD GIRL
“You know you’ve got the work of an alfajor master in your hands when the buttery cookies, sandwiching just a smear of dulce de leche, crumble at the slightest touch. The alfajores made by Chilean native Guisell Osorio do just that. Osorio, who owns the Walnut Creek catering business Sabores Del Sur, grew up having the rich South American cookies baked for her by her grandmother as a reward for “being good.”
