This is one of the best little eateries you'll find in Ecuador – and that's why Moliendo Café is always rammed. The hearty arepas (maize pancakes, from $4.50) come from Ecuador's northern neighbors but are a specialty here, topped with anything from beans and cheese to slow-cooked pork. The delicious and filling almuerzos (set lunches; $2.50) are also a smashing deal.
