Arepa Factory has opened on Avenue A



The quick-serve Venezuelan restaurant opened Saturday at 147 Avenue A near East Ninth Street …



It wasn't open yet for the day when we walked by… but the space looks nice on the inside…





Has anyone tried it yet??? (They have a Twitter account here.)

The storefront used to be part of Café Pick Me Up, which decamped to join the Gnocco space on East 10th Street back in June.

Is all that food deep fried?

"Is all that food deep friend" asks the guy who can't be bothered to google what an "arepa" is.

They're very friendly in there, and their homemade drinks are delicious. The food is v good too.

I'm not going to say whether I prefer it to Caracas.

That last picture looks so delicious. I guess I know where I'm checking out later this week.

I am so happy this didn't get put together with the space next door and turned into a Starbucks or a bank branch. I plan to try it out this week!
