Arepa is a Venezuelan corn muffin, crisp on the outside and steamy-soft in the middle, stuffed with fillings like mashed chicken and avocado, perhaps, or sweet plantains and cheese, or shredded beef and shavings of Cheddar. I never knew these things existed until I walked passed this Arepa bar today. Caracas Arepa Bar is decorated in an kitchy Brazilian like fashion and serves these large snacks in baskets.

Hey, I just found your blog and I think its really cool. You’ve probably seen more of NY in the last few days than I have in 4 years. So, I love Caracas, its amazing and I’m dying to go back to try more! I was thinking, Im not sure where you have been to eat around the city, from the looks of it you really get around. BUT if you have not been yet, I strongly suggest you try Shake Shack. I love it so much and thought if you were experiencing NY this might add to the experience. Enjoy!
Thanks! I haven’t been to Shake Shack but have just added it to my list and will sure to check it out.
