Arepas Rock!

Yesterday I was working at the bakery in the evening.  The day crew will usually save some grilled arepa bread for the night crew to eat dinner but they didn't do that yesterday.  They did make a loaf of bread though.  The bread was delicious by itself so I decided to make a sandwich for dinner.  I used all the same items I do for an arepa -I had the chicken salad -and you know what?  I don't think I'll ever go back to regular sandwiches again!

Arepas are way better!!  With a regular sandwich the bread smothers the taste of the other ingredients.  I couldn't really taste the cheese at all and the flavor of the chicken salad was also overpowered by the bread.  I decided that's why Arepas are so good -they are thin and not super strong in flavor so you can taste what's in the sandwich.

My kids will probably never have a sandwich unless someone else makes it for them -they'll only get Arepas from me. :)

Awesomeness!

Thank you to everyone who came out to our grand opening! It was a HUGE success! We weren't expecting that many people, so thanks for being so patient with the craziness.

We got a lot of feedback to improve or little operation, and we really appreciate all of it. We'll be making some changes based on the feedback we received. We hope to meet as many people's expectations as we can.

One question we were asked many times was why don't we sell bread? We decided, from the beginning, not to sell anything we don't love. We absolutely love the aprepa flat bread, but we don't absolutely love the "regular" wheat bread imitations. There are some decent ones out there, but we're just not blown away. So, there you have it!

We love you all!!! You rock.
