AJI DULCE CAFE GOURMET – Mexican
Coffee comes first, then the smell of cachitos coming out of the oven. Aji Dulce Cafe Gourmet is a Venezuelan-American cafe and bakery on Port St. Lucie's Bayshore Boulevard, run by a Caracas couple who serve breakfast and lunch and lock up by mid-afternoon. Arepas arrive with white cheese, black beans and shredded beef or chicken. Empanadas come stuffed with beef, chicken, cheese or shrimp beside a cilantro-garlic sauce. Omelets, breakfast sandwiches, salads, soups, burgers and pasta round the board. Regulars talk about the pastries, the espresso drinks and how fast the staff learn a name. Small room, generous plates.
