Arepas Ariapita was born out of a collaboration between Trinidadians & Venezuelans to cater to the palate of Trinis and Venes alike in the heart of the entertainment district in Woodbrook, Port of Spain. ️ If we had to describe Venezuelans through food, it would be the Arepa. It is corn-based, grilled, gluten-free and guilt- free! It is grilled, not fried. By popular request of Trinbagonians of Venezuelan heritage and Venezuelans in Trinidad, we bring authentic Venezuelan arepas & dishes to you, "on the Avenue", the heart of carnival! Its uses are so versatile that it has become the quintessential dish in Venezuela and appears on the tables of Colombia and Panama.

You can have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner, without any guilt complex. Whether you've been to Venezuela or not, you must eat an arepa if you have never done so before.
