Carolicious Arepas

Carolicious is the result of perseverance, discipline, study and the deep respect for the country in which its founders were born: Venezuela.

Las Carolinas arrived in Somerville in August 2015 and in June 2016 as entrepreneurs joined the Somerville Arts Council Nibble Program.

After 3 years of participating in many events and learning about the food business, Carolicious is a company born in Venezuela and raised in New England dedicated to serving Venezuelan food, specifically traditional Venezuelan arepas with the addition of local flavors. Serving Venezuelan arepas with local produces have allowed Carolicious to deliver a healthy, delicious, and easy-to-eat meal that is also safer a more accessible for being gluten-free.

Arepas are a kind of hot sandwich made with cornflour and it can either accompany a meal or be the main dish at any time of the day. As Venezuelans, eating arepas is part of our day to day life. It is a lifestyle.

Our mission is to introduce traditional Venezuelan food to the City of Somerville and beyond. To be excellent ambassadors not only of Venezuelan cuisine but of the way of being of its people: kind, gentle and cheerful.

We’ll introduce our guests to the colors, textures and flavors that identify our country’s gastronomy while providing the best local produce, outstanding service and sustainable practices.

We keep a tiny piece of our country close to us with the pleasure to share a wonderful meal with the rest of the world.
