“You can tell a spot is a good food establishment when you see all the hard-working folks pulling up. Not in the best neighborhood, but life isn't perfect. Had to check out their comfort food. They didn't miss. Delicious(deep fried) chicken. rice, and potatoes alongside coleslaw. Got to support more of Latino Chinese restaurant.. they even gave me a tea“
“Came here before a concert, it was a great snacks that turned into dinner :)Ordered the arepa and cachapa- loooove them! I personally like cachapa better because of thinner crust and that allows me to balance the corn and meat flavor. But the arepa still tastes amazing!Too bad there was no interesting drinks available, though. The restaurant was small and quiet, it's pretty tidy with small water dispenser available. The service is pretty decent, you'll need to come to the register and pay.“
“If you’re looking for a place to slowly develop a food service or restaurant concept this is it! Kristina is very kind and extremely helpful and professional and she also understands social and digital media management. Only downside is that the space and kitchen are kind of small and dishwashing set up is manual.“
“Have to admit, this place was in a mental blind spot for me until a friend recommended it. Turns out it's delightful! The place was totally empty on a Monday night, but the service was very friendly, the food was solid, the decor was lively, and the seating was comfortable. Looking forward to going back ?“

“*What is Venezuelan food?* It IS NOT Mexican, Peruvian, or Argentinian food. DO NOT BE LOOKING for spicy elements, HOT salsas, jalapeños or peppers. It is unique and complex; and it is not Americanized. It is what it is, Venezuelan cuisine. You must learn to appreciate it. It is not way around. Venezuelan cuisine is a vibrant and diverse fusion of indigenous, African, and European influences. The country's geographical location, with its proximity to the Caribbean Sea and the Andes Mountains, has led to a rich variety of ingredients and flavors in Venezuelan food. One of the defining characteristics of Venezuelan cuisine is its use of corn, which is a staple in many dishes. Arepas, a type of cornmeal flatbread, are a popular breakfast food that can be filled with various meats, cheeses, and vegetables. Another corn-based dish is hallacas, a type of tamale filled with a mixture of meat, olives, and raisins, and wrapped in plantain leaves. These are often served during special occasions and holidays. Meat is also a significant component in Venezuelan cuisine, with dishes such as pabellon criollo, a hearty meal made of shredded beef, black beans, rice, and fried plantains. Another popular meat dish is asado negro, a slow-cooked beef roast flavored with dark caramel sauce. Seafood is also abundant in Venezuela, with dishes like pescado frito (fried fish) and cazuela de mariscos (seafood stew) being popular choices. Venezuelan food is also known for its use of tropical fruits, such as mangoes, papayas, and passion fruit, in both savory and sweet dishes. One famous dessert is tres leches cake, a sponge cake soaked in a mixture of condensed milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream, creating a rich and creamy texture. Another sweet treat is tequeños, fried cheese sticks wrapped in a thin pastry dough and often served as an appetizer. In addition to its diverse flavors and ingredients, Venezuelan cuisine also has a strong emphasis on communal dining. Meals are often shared with family and friends, and it is common for large gatherings to revolve around food. This communal aspect of Venezuelan food reflects the country's warm and welcoming culture. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing economic and political crisis in Venezuela, access to food has become a major issue for many citizens. However, despite the challenges, Venezuelans continue to find ways to preserve and celebrate their culinary traditions, keeping their vibrant and flavorful cuisine alive. From traditional dishes to street food and fusion cuisine, Venezuelan food is a reflection of the country's history, culture, and resilience.“
