[ McCaracas ]
Walking around in Caracas last week, we decided to look for a quick bite to eat. There were hardly any visible street names, but every so often we found signage with golden arches, happily announcing the distance you stood away from the shop. (McDonald´s 150 mts, McDonald´s 50 mts) We spoted about four different ones in a 1 kilometer radius. Call it subliminal advertising, but the next day we decided to go find some pancakes, you know, the big breakfast from McDonald´s or a nice junky-juicy-egg-mcmuffin.
But instead found something that brought a smile to my face. An AREPA for breakfast with bacon, american cheese and one of those out of the box eggs. Yes, the areapa for breakfast, and I thought how Venezuelan! Then I looked for the mcmuffin sandwich, but there wasn´t one. Instead there is something called a Criollo, which you can have with bacon, cheese, eggs and sausage, now, you may think I am a walking commercial here, but what brought my attention to this is how there is a fusion between the north and the south to cater to the venezuelan consumer. And how much fun it would be to have an arepa at McDonald´s for breakfast in Toronto!
