Caracas Arepa Bar

I was so pumped to finally check this place out. The host was good about putting our names down and predicting when we should come back- 30 minutes, which was fine- we grabbed a drink down the street at Cafe 81 and came back just in time. I suggest having a back-up plan of somewhere to go while you wait. Started with the yoyos which I do not recommend. Our group decided they taste like cinnamon raisin bagels. Since we already ate tapas before we shared the La Guayanesa 5.75, La de Pernil 6.25, La Sureña 7. We purposely avoided anything with jalapenos due to the salmonella scare at the time... All were really delicious little bites. The meat in the pernil arepa was so tasty and tender. Yummmmm can't wait to go back, but the waiting is a hassle.
