At Viva Las Arepas we feel proud to provide fresh arepas with a variety of fillings, both hot and cold, made fresh every day. An Arepa is a flat, round and soft patty made out of cornmeal, which is grilled, making it crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and then it can be stuffed with beef, chicken, ham, cheese, beans, shrimp, and many more. These delights are gluten-free, and wheat-free. Empanada means to wrap or coat in masa. Our empanadas are made with cornmeal dough. We fold the dough around the stuffing, which consists of many meats and cheeses, even beans. Finally, it is fried.
