Bien Mesabe - Chicago

I love this place so much. I am usually good to take photos of my food before I eat it, but this is one of the few places where I like...f*ck it!...

Really nice place! I went with 0 expectations, and the food was great. The arepitas (tiny fried arepas) were fresh, hot, crisp and absolutely filled...

Oh, my God! How I have been living around the corner of this place for years and never stopped!! I'm meeting! Whatever the shrimps are to stones...

We went on Wednesday for the arepa special. The moment our plates were placed in front of us, fruit flies flew around us. The arepas were bland and less than mediocre. When our bill came, we were not granted the deal because we ordered from the signature section rather the the traditional. Neither the sign on the door or the waiter indicated the Wednesday deal. I'm going to stick with the Hermosa neighborhood arepas.

Found this place on a whim and so glad we did! The food was incredible! Definitely recommend the Arepas!
