The specialty at this Venezuelan restaurant on the park is arepas (delicious corn flatbread stuffed with your choice of shredded beef, chicken or beans and plantains). There are many vegetarian and gluten-free options here and the refreshing freshly made juices go nicely with just about everything on the menu.
