• We went for lunch at Arepa and Co, a Venezuelan restaurant on the canal at Haggerton.
  • We were seated at a table looking out on the canal and I ordered a Beso Del Diablo Martini with vodka, foam, lychee, apple and chilli syrup.
  • We started off with some tequeños which were pastry sticks filled with cheese. They were served with a fruity dip and were delicious.
  • Tom and Pamela then had some arepas which were cornmeal sandwiches.
  • I had a cachapa which was a cornmeal pancake filled with plantains, cheddar and black beans. It was delicious and I'm going to try adapting my pancake recipe to use cornmeal so we can try them at home.
