On my Delish List: Caracas Arepa Bar Prior to my visit to NY this weekend, I asked you loyal tumblrs to give this foodie a few ideas of the best places to eat in the city.  I want to personally thank Sarah and allthiscanbeyours for giving me some great tips!  On my last day in the city, and after having stuffed my face at Babycakes, I was determined to make my way to Sarah’s suggestion of going to Caracas Arepa Bar.  All I have to say is WOW!  I was in arepa heaven!  This cozy little restaurant has arepas that are bursting with flavor!  The arepas were a bit smaller than I thought they would be, but they were full of incredible ingredients.  I chose to get La Mulata (grilled white cheese with jalapeños, sautéed red peppers, fried sweet plantains and black beans).  I also added tofu and avocado to this arepa, it was crazy good!  My friends decided to order La Del Gato (guayanés cheese, fried sweet plantains and avocado slices).  They loved it, especially with the special sauce they have on each table. I’m going to try my best to recreate what I had at this place so I can give you tumblrs an arepa recipe.  Thank you again to Sarah for suggesting the arepa bar! *That concludes my eating excursions through NYC.  Look forward to some new recipes, new discoveries from the delish detector and restaurant reviews!

Prior to my visit to NY this weekend, I asked you loyal tumblrs to give this foodie a few ideas of the best places to eat in the city.  I want to personally thank Sarah and allthiscanbeyours for giving me some great tips! 

On my last day in the city, and after having stuffed my face at Babycakes, I was determined to make my way to Sarah’s suggestion of going to Caracas Arepa Bar.  All I have to say is WOW!  I was in arepa heaven! 

This cozy little restaurant has arepas that are bursting with flavor!  The arepas were a bit smaller than I thought they would be, but they were full of incredible ingredients.
