My personal favorites are the Reina and Guyanesa Tropical. Wed Oct 14 06:45:42 -0700 2009 5101897 23591 queenseats 2 5102087 Looks great! Thanks.

For non-Venezualan style arepas, Rico Pan on Woodside Ave around 59th st sells Arepas con Queso and the arepas are incredibly sweet with a strong corn flavor while the cheese is is intense, salty and warm. Delicious. Their beef and chicken empanadas are great as well. Wed Oct 14 07:17:37 -0700 2009 5102004 78039 Widmark 1 5103771 I only look for arepas from one source: the arepa lady. Fri/Sat after 10pm. Roosevelt and somewhere between 78th and 79th.

Located near 79 and Roosevelt, late nights, much has been written about her. She was quite the Chowhound sensation at the turn of the century. She had a myspace, by now she probably twitters.

Is it getting near the season when she heads south for warmer climes?
