Venezuelan Sussex students Valentina Eleizalde Klisans and Alfredo Felix
Join us on Wednesday 14 May for the next round of Student Takeovers, where Sussex Uni Food will be serving Venezuelan Arepas for just £2 in Eat Central!
This delicious special comes from a recipe shared by two Venezuelan Sussex students, Valentina Eleizalde Klisans and Alfredo Felix. They generously taught Chef Mike how to make arepas, a staple of Venezuelan cuisine - and now we’re bringing them to campus for everyone to enjoy.
When?
Wednesday 14 May from 12pm
(Leftovers, if any, will be available again on Thursday 15 May from 12pm.)
Menu:
-
Meat option: Reina Pepiada – chicken with mashed avocado
-
Vegan option: Arepa Domino – black beans with vegan cheese
From Valentina and Alfredo:
“Arepas have been ever-present in our lives. They remind us of the families who have migrated from Venezuela.
Throughout Venezuela’s many crises and divisions, the arepa has remained a powerful symbol of connection, community, and tradition. Arepas are cooked by the heart, not by instructions."
Come along, and enjoy some Arepas with us!
