We really missed arepas, so it is great to find a place where you can have a proper one made by Venezuelans. Pro tip for vegans is to ask for the pata pata without cheese but with platano instead. That way you get a fully vegan arepa where you don't just have to remove something and get a less complete meal. They say their cachapas are vegan as well but they came with some white liquid on top, which we suspect is milk. The cachapa is too sweet for our tastes anyway, we would always go with the arepa.

I ordered the Fungy one as a vegan option and it was delicious. But it’s a bit pricy compared to other restaurants with vegan options in town.

The food here was amazing! I got the veggie arepa “Sin Queso” and it was super delicious. Worth the visit.

Big portions, lots of beans! Yummy simple lunch option

Tried both the arepa and cachapa and enjoyed both! Lovely to see vegan options. Pretty large portion.
