Pana Venezuelan Food

118 Cooper St, Santa Cruz, CA 95060

I've wanted to try arepas since finding out that they were the magical food that the mom used to heal people in Encanto. The reviews for Pana Venezuelan Food are so positive, I had to try it, and their stuffed arepas *are* magical. I got the PB + avo, never mind that I'd never had fried plantains before either, and took it back to the balcony at the motel so I could feel Halloween-festive with my own orange Jarritos. I had a hard time finding my way around initially, but just know that there's a kiosk inside the main restaurant area that you can order from, and that the kitchen/eating area for Pana is inside the slightly-separate dome-shaped building.
