[ Arepas ]

Made of the food of the gods, corn; arepas are staple in the Venezuelan diet. I´ve taken the tortilla as a reference point, since it is what I know. An arepa is basically a tortilla smeared with butter and stuffed with a variety of foods, from meat, chicken to veggies and cheese this is something not to be missed when visiting here.

The beauty of arepas is that they do not require milk, nor sugar otherwise there would have been a political upheaval over them already.

Now if you excuse me... I am off to my favourite arepla place.
