Located literary half-way across the globe, Venezuela, a Latin
America country with magnificent shoreline along the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean is a place which I didn’t know much
about, well thanks to the Venezuela Gastronomic Festival 2015, one of the biggest Latin
Food fest in Malaysia currently ongoing in the newly rebranded Pullman Kuala Lumpur City Centre Hotel & Residences, I've had an opportunity to know a little bit more about the country through its food, and much to my surprise not only this lovely Latin America country is pretty good with beef
oriented dish, they also possess some of the wonderfully unique and tasty
cuisine which I enjoy the pleasure of savouring them at the authentic buffet spreed putting up by Chef Federico Martin Tischler and Chef Enrique Limardo from Venezuela, the master mind behind the unique dishes of Venezuela Gastronomic Festival 2015 ^^

Held in conjunction with the 10th Venezuelan Week Malaysia, the
Venezuela Gastronomic Festival aims to showcase the flavourful, indigenous and
diverse Venezuelan cuisine. Among the authentic Venezuelan dishes presents by the visiting duo, the Roasted Beef with Guasacaca is no doubt my number one personal favorite, this impressive chunk of roasted beef which served in cuts of flavourful tender pinkish slices is made perfect with chef's avocado salsa recipe, a highly recommended must try for sure b^^d

The Arepas, an interesting flatbread made with ground maize dough is another essential Venezuelan classic I enjoy having, describes as the 'Venezuelan sandwich' by chef this bread is a versatile delight which goes well with almost all kind of fillings and sauces, Reina Pepiada (chicken morsels coated via avocado mayonnaise) & Carne Mechada (shredded beef venezuela style) for instance ^^
