KL's first Venezuelan restaurant offers homey food and a heart-warming welcome


Empanadas, made from yellow maize flour imported from Venezuela, with various fillings. – AZHAR MAHFOF/The Star

The first Venezuelan restaurant in the Klang Valley is exactly like its co-owner, director and head chef Fabiana Zambrano. Exceptionally warm and welcoming, simple and unfussy, El Maiz is a bastion of food with all the allure of true home cooking.

Zambrano has been catering for a year in KL, and thought it was time to introduce the food of her birth country to her adopted home by opening a restaurant with her husband, Jose Zabala.
