As New Yorkers, food carts and street vendors are a staple of our everyday life, and for some of us, a reminder of back home. La Vecina takes different tastes, cultures, and cuisines and fuses them together to make you feel at home. It's a different take on the homemade arepa and a twist on some of your favorite classics that will leave your mouth watering. La Vecina is a place that inspires closeness, love and sharing together as neighbors usually do. We've taken South America and brought it back to you, your home away from home.
