    Saw this video and decided to go with two friends on a whim ... we were blown away. Flavor profile was absolutely divine. We did everything tapas style - mandocas, hallaca, a tomato dish, bollitos, and a few desserts - and every single dish was a hit. Can't recommend it enough

      It’s because the US is the closest most developed nation to South American nations. The US dollar holds value all over the world so naturally people want to emigrate there. I find the prices too rich at this spot but then again, its no hole in the wall either which is usually what I prefer if I’m trying a new culture’s food.

    I am Venezuelan on my mom’s side. My siblings have been to Venezuela, met the family there and speak Spanish but not me. A few years ago I decided to learn more about Venezuela by teaching myself how to cook empanadas, pabellón criollo, hallacas, and cachapas. And the food really makes me feel closer.
    My sister also makes pan de jamón to go with the hallacas for Christmas and my best friend (who isn’t Venezuelan) found a Venezuelan cookie recipe, polvorosas cookies, for us to have a full on Venezuelan Christmas. I used to not care for Christmas but I am already excited for that yummy food!

    As a Puerto Rican, I find Venezuelan cuisine and culture to be very similar to Puerto Rican's. We have hallacas too but we call them 'pasteles en hoja' and we also have our own version of arepas. Even our Spanish accents sound a bit similar. This restaurant being located in Ave Puerto Rico seems very apt!
