LAS AREPAS DE MARIA – Restaurant

Inside The Doral Yard, Las Arepas de Maria works without a printed menu: someone comes to the table and talks you through the fillings. Carne mechada, reina pepiada, jamon, mortadella, cheeses in several combinations, plus cachapas for anyone who wants the sweet-corn version. The dough is thin and crisp at the edges, the arepas arrive hot, and that is the whole argument. Reviewers in Miami rank it among the best arepas in the city, and the peak-hour wait suggests plenty of people agree. Venezuelan home cooking, served fast and without fuss.
