Their "patacones glaciados", glazed plantain sandwiches are delicious. The restaurant is a great spot to experience Zulian culture.

En aÃ±os anteriores podÃas venir aquÃ y disfrutar tu comida con mas calma, caminando por la calle Carabobo, de repente se encontraba el y decidÃas entrar. Las opciones siempre fueron buenas, comida tÃpica, criolla de la zona en un pintoresco lugar. Hoy en dÃa, lo que le perjudica es la inseguridad que hace que sea un poco temeroso ir al centro de la ciudad. Aunque el tiempo haya pasado, las cosas no sean para bien, no se le puede quitar lo que fue en el pasado, menos aÃºn se puede perder la esperanza que un dÃa este sitio renazca. A mi me gusta y me trae gratos recuerdos.
