La Casa Bistró in Los Palos Grandes, a residential and commercial area packed with nice restaurants and trendy cafes, has a unique concept: “Hecho en Casa.” Almost everything is homemade. Known for his creative interpretation of Caracas dishes, Chef Francisco Abenante also produces a variety of French breads, extraordinary butter and delicious cured meats. Some blocks away, the restaurant’s roof garden provides the kitchen’s vegetables and herbs. Breakfast favorites include the arepas with scrumptious fillings and cazuelitas. For lunch, the asado negro is slow-cooked with papelón sauce. You can find good sandwiches nearly everywhere in the city, but the Sandwich Con Brisket Y Canonigos with brisket and lamb’s lettuce is a winner. Close your eyes and enjoy the soft, slow-cooked meat layered with crisp lettuce, caramelized onions and BBQ sauce. No wonder the bistro is considered among the best restaurants in Caracas.
