You’re practically fluent in Spanish. You speak taco and burrito all the time.

Time to expand your vocabulario — and your appetite — to include arepa and cachapa at Pica Pica Maize Kitchen inside Napa’s new Oxbow Public Market.

The corn-centric fast food joint is one of the only places in Northern California where you’ll find authentic Venezuelan grub.

Lesson numero uno: choose an arepa (grilled corn flour flatbread) filled with chicken salad and creamy avocado or pabellon (shredded skirt steak with fried plantains and black bean paste). Numero dos: try a cachapa (sweet corn pancake) filled with salty queso blanco. Can’t decide? The maize’wich (grilled cheese on sweet cornbread) is a sabroso combo.

Advanced students add on tostones (fried plantains), yucca fries, or hearty homemade chupe. For extra credit, call your server “chamo” or “pana.”

Muy bien.
