Picoteo (El), Caracas

Compared to its unusually bright mustard-colored facade, the interior of Picoteo is certainly elegant. It has a spacious dining area, banisters, lots of wooden furniture, and a fine bar. The restaurant is good, but the partying upstairs is even better. The international cuisine with a Spanish flair includes paella, meat, fish or shellfish. The food is good and the prices moderate. If partying is on the cards, then El Picoteo should be on the itinerary...a discotheque and live music makes this spot very attractive for night birds.
