The Caracas: Bringing the Flavors of Venezuela to Vermont

For Juan, food has always been more than nourishment—it’s a connection to home, culture, and community. Five years ago, he left Venezuela in search of opportunity, but the communal spirit of cooking and sharing meals remained central to his life. His mother and abuelita instilled in him a love for the kitchen, where food was always a uniting force.

More than just a food truck, Caracas is Juan’s way of giving back. His dream is to one day open a Caracas coffee shop, where curious eaters can explore his culture, take part in arepa and cachapa workshops, and find a place where they are cared for—deliciously.

Join us in celebrating Juan’s culinary passion and experience the flavors of Venezuela at Local Meets Global!
