“Our dishes are inspired by recipes that have been made popular by street vendors in Colombia, who are known for providing simple yet delicious foods” said Lisa Perdomo, owner and operator of Arepas & Co. “In fact, the way we marinade our meats is a recipe passed down to my husband by one of his aunts in Colombia whose finger-licking meals are highly rated by friends and family” added Lisa.
