| - This was a new and great experience. And the locals love coming here. It's a very popular Venezuelan restaurant in Montreal.
I ordered the black beans and plantain arepa. The arepa is a corn based, popular homemade bread in Venezuela, stuffed with black beans and plantains. Absolutely delicious and gluten free!!!! I added their famous avocado sauce to every bite. This simple, put together, like a wrap dish was a hit. Add a side of cassava fries and you have the perfect meal. The arepa and cassava fries could have easily been shared between 2 people, as it was quite filling for me. But if you're starving, go ahead and order your own.
You can order your arepa with chicken, pork, beef, vegetarian and very vegetarian. I didn't make that last one up, it actually says that on the menu.
The restaurant is a bit smallish, so a group of 2 to 4 max is good. Their waiting list is a white board outside the restaurant, where you write your name and number of guests. There's also no room to wait inside for a table, so you have to wait outside to be called in. That part wasn't fun on a cold winter day. But I still gave it a five star because the food was that amazing.
