AREPERA LA NUEVA – South American
An all-hours Venezuelan arepera on South Semoran Boulevard in Orlando, opening at eight in the morning and running past midnight toward the weekend. Breakfast is the reason to arrive early: arepas built with black beans, white cheese and a choice of carne mechada, shredded chicken, perico eggs or ham tortilla, with tequenos by the piece or the tray. Later the board widens to reina pepiada, empanadas, cachapas and pabellon. A sister kitchen operates further south on Orange Blossom Trail. Diners consistently praise staff who stay patient and quick even when the counter is three deep late on a Saturday night.
