13. February 2015: Restaurant Sopas de Mamá y Postres de la Abuela
The last meal in Colombia should be one to indulge in all the delicacies this country has to offer so I went for a variety of dishes, starting with “morcilla con papa criolla (dos provocativas morcillas servidas con papa criolla y ají casero)” (10’500 COP) and “empanadas de la abuela (¡combínalas a tu gusto!)” where […]
13. February 2015: Artesanos Café
How to spend your last day in Colombia before taking off? Always a good question and the best answer probably is “shopping”. But after a lot of shopping you also need a rest – so the Artesanos Café is the perfect place to rest as it is a bit secluded within the shopping mall, the […]
13. February 2015: Restaurant La Chimenea @ Sheraton Bogotá
The breakfast selection at the Restaurnat La Chimenea was quite extensive ranging from fresh fruit and juices … … to a selection of cereals … … warm dishes like “arepas con queso”, “papa carré” and “salchicha” … … fresh breads … … muffins and toasts … … as well as “pizza” and “pancakes” … … […]
12. February 2015: Executive Lounge @ Sheraton Bogotá
I have seen quite a few Executive Lounges so far but I must say that the one in the Sheraton Bogotá defintely belongs to the best ones so far. The selection of dishes and the respective quality is absolutely great. The selection ranges from a variety of fresh teas to fruit juices … … a […]
11. February 2015: Street Food Oblea
As I have tried Oblea already once before I thought I knew what expected me but I did not entirely. The “oblea” (1’500 COP) was still an oblea but this time there was a variety … … of different ingredients which were added to the oblea … … and I have never seen before making […]
11. February 2015: Sandwich Qbano Palmira @ Llanogrande Plaza
Sometimes you end up in a place which you probably would not have chosen initially – but when you starve you go almost everywhere. The Llanogrande Plaza is a shopping mall where you can find a variety of different foods – and somehow I dedicded to try a sandwich from the “Sandwich Qbano”. The “Sandwich […]
10. February 2015: Restaurant Platillos Voladores
I have been recommended the Restaurant Platillos Voladores in Cali and had actually booked a table for that evening – but randomly ended up at the exact same restaurant for a birthday party – what a coincidence. The place itself is quite appealing but frankly speaking the dishes are only average. For the fact that […]
10. February 2015: Ventolini Santa Monica
I thought that three balls of icecream would be a small dessert after the meaty lunch – and I couldn’t have been any wronger than that! The three flavours I went for, “lulo”, “tropical mandarina” and “tropical mora” (3’000 COP per ball) were huge. The flavours were good as they were special but the intensity […]
