"Arepa Venezuelan Kitchen unsurprisingly serves the kind of arepas you’re likely to get in Venezuela: thick corn patties split open and stuffed with a variety of fillings. The menu includes 17 different filling combinations, and you can’t go wrong with any of them. But if you’re struck by tyranny of choice, flip a coin between the pabellón (shredded beef cooked in a tomato-based sauce, with black beans, white cheese, and fried sweet plantain) and reina pepiada (a chicken and avocado salad that translates to “curvy queen”). There are also Venezuelan empanadas, tequeños (fried cheese sticks), patacones, arepitas, as well as combination plates. Arepa Venezuelan Kitchen also has a location on Northeast 50th Street, but that will eventually close to make way for new development." - Mark DeJoy
