Sampling the Arepa that Beat Bobby Flay at Caracas Arepa Bar

Oooohhh these are the best. It's my post-yoga class dinner (that's just the kind of contradictory girl I am. I think I left my yoga mat there actually. If anyone finds it...). Did you mention their AMAZING salsa that I could eat with a spoon. No s*&^ they kicked Flay's ass. There is no way he could come close to this deliciousness. Only now I am sad because it will now be an even longer wait! :(

Because the sauce stains my shirt
And the gristle gets under my nails, like delicious dirt
Ribs dripping with tender meat and fat
Bring tears to my eyes, like I'm allergic to a cat
Except I love barbecue, I do
Carolina-style, North or South
Unless there's a Texas slab waiting for my mouth
Enough to go around, Madison Square Park is our meaty playground.

I constantly crave what is now my go-to lunch: a toubouli and baba ganoush sandwich with veggies on whole wheat pita from Rainbow falafel on 17th Street. Satisfying and healthy, keeps me going through the day without any other cravings (except for the occasional clementine). The perfect way for me to counter the mountains of smoked pork barbeque I inhaled over the holidays.

They have both coconut and banana milkshakes here too and they are awesome especially in the summer.

Sampling the Arepa that Beat Bobby Flay at Caracas Arepa Bar

I just ate at Caracas last Sunday and loved it. Had the Ensalada en acida, which was a spunky mix of corn, black bleans, and I believe, cilantro in a tart citrus dressing. The Arepas were awesome, - the pabellon was hearty and deep in flavor, my Chorcarne, which combined Chorizo and beef was out of this world. Feel free to use the mango-habanero aoli at the table liberally. The stuff is hard to put down.

As fresh and clean as the Arepas were, stay far away from the Empanads. They're heavy, oily, and overall, unnecessary.

Perched at the edge of the fire,
Intent to sate our desire, he
Tirelessly wields his tongs,
Managing New York’s famished throngs.
Awed by the pig he prepares,
Smoking wood to obscure our petty cares,
This genius imported from afar,
Elect by divine right, a meat czar
Rallys all lovers of ‘cue to the 6th Big Apple Barbecue!

Serious eaters love their 'que
more ribs, pork and sauce we all cry
oinkers every one and thats no lie
ketchup free secret marinade I will ply
in the pit sizzling over hickory, mesquite and oak they go
nothing beats low and slow

Before dawn I start my fire,
Undeterred by the early hour,
Taking my time
To do it right.
Ribs, Butts and Briskets,
Unified by smoke,
Become Barbecue!

Bright coals of hardwood sweet, turn to
Ash: smoke-tender meat.
Ribs and rubs and sauce, outstanding!
Brisket’s coming in for a landing.
Ending up right on my fork:
Crisp yet melting, luscious pork.
Underneath the meat’s sweet crunch
Every mouth cries out “Great lunch!”

P lease Serious Eats, help me out
I need that fast pass so I can pig out
T he last 8 months I’ve been a new Mom
S carcely going out, with days never calm
P it masters will see when I’m in a great mood
I needed the Fast Pass to get to my food!
G luttons beware, new Moms don’t have time
S peeding through the BBQ sure sounds divine!

I crave broccoli (very healthy). But when I add the cheese on top, I think I've just lost the healthy part!!

I actually like the flavor of dried apricots and dried prunes. I find myself often looking for either of them in my refrigerator.

I always crave grapefruit but because of a certain medication I am on, I am NOT allowed to have it! I think about it every morning when I see my husband eating his! Not fair! :(
