"Serving Venezuelan-inspired Latin American street food, La Cocinita specializes in arepas — delectable cornmeal patties in crowd-pleasing varieties like El Pabellon (brisket, black beans, sweet plantains) and El Vegano (sweet potato, corn and carrot sofrito, salsa verde, pico de gallo). Eat there or enjoy the weather by snagging seats a block west at Fountain Square. La Cocinita also operates a food truck." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
