It's a simple, limited menu - a half dozen fillings (chicken, pork, beef, shrimp, hummus, cheese),…read moreand your choice of vehicle - a lightly crispy sandwich made of two thin white corn arepas (Venezuelan corn cakes), slightly spongy yellow corn tortillas (they're rolled out unevenly, so in some spots their almost crisp, in others, almost pancake like) to make tacos, or double fried plantains that have been pounded out into thin rounds to use in place of "bread" for a sandwich, a popular Venezuelan street snack. Having tried a trio of fillings with a couple of friends we're impressed with the flavors.
Not so much with the speed of the kitchen - an order of two portions of arepas and one of tacos took 50 minutes to arrive at the table. We'd arrived at the time the restaurant opened, and it seemed, so had the trio of partners, and they simply hadn't made either of the doughs before opening, so they were literally measuring, mixing, forming, and cooking while customers waited. They also didn't have any of the menu-offered craft beer (from Dust) available, nor one of the three housemade juice blends (and having had two glasses of their orange and rosemary blend, it was different one after the other, the first time having been blended with still mineral water, the second time, fizzy with sparkling. Hopefully those are a one-time misstep. The resulting food, however, worth a revisit soon!
