Heard Rika was going to be at Bad Beat Brewing on 08/09/14 so we decided we DEFINITELY had to get down there. Rika's not frequently in Henderson so we definitely had to take advantage.
This place is delicious. I ordered the shredded beef arepa and the chicken/sausage arepa. Both were delicious. Served hot and with a side of fried plantains. The chicken/sausage was my favorite. The arepa itself is slightly crispy on the outside which makes it a perfect little pocket for all those delicious fillings they put in there.
I have not been to the "other" arepa spot in town, but I've had Rika three times and can honestly say I frequently look at their calendar in hopes that they will be near me. Their drinks are delicious and the arepas are pretty close to perfect. The owners are also always very friendly and helpful.
