Description
Creole pavilion typical food of Venezuelans, from colonial times, probably from the 18th century. They mixed the ingredients they had on hand on the farms where they worked, such as rice, black beans, and ripe plantains. Over time, meat was added to the mix and became a popular dish among the country's inhabitants.The Creole pavilion also has a symbolic meaning, since it represents the union of the different ethnicities and cultures that make up Venezuela. Some say that white rice symbolizes the Spanish, shredded meat symbolizes the indigenous people, and black beans symbolizes the Africans.
