Arepa is the favorite food of Venezuelan people. The arepa is currently the characteristic sign of our country and is known worldwide as the most distinctive food of Venezuelan gastronomy. The arepa can be eaten at any time of the day and can serve as an accompaniment to any dish. The arepa is commonly chosen for breakfast or dinner, with fillings of all kinds: butter, cheese, ham, chicken, fish, meat, or eggs. But it also serves as an accompaniment to lunches and soups.
