2. February 2015: Masa 81 Café

When you walk through the streets of Bogotá you sometimes randomly come across beautifull, stylish little cafés – and the Masa 81 Café is one of those. While the surroundings are definitely okay but nothing breath-taking, the café is designed in a very appealing way. The “Torta de Zanahoria” (6’300 COP) was surprisingly tasty. Although I was not really up for dessert it really tingled my taste buds.

The prices for the beverages (i.e. double espreso, 3’900 COP; “Jugo de Chicha de Patilla” (watermelon juice”), 6’000 COP) are reasonable and allow you to sit down for quite some time in a friendly atmosphere. But not only the atmosphere is friendly, so is the waitress.

The Masa 81 Café is the perfect place to make a short stop to have something to drink when you are on your way from Calle #93 to Calle #70 (you shouldn’t go much further by foot) as it is conveniently located in the middle, as the same says, at Calle #81.

I started the blog in October 2009, while living in Milan which I definitely consider to be one of the food capitals of the world. I was in touch with food since my early childhood (as my father is a former chef). Whenever I can, I travel the world to discover new places, to meet people but mostly to try local dishes and to find hidden gems! If you know a place worth going, please drop a line to: info@thediningexperience.org. Currently, I am a member of the following food-related associations: Chevalier @Chaîne des Rôtisseurs Zurich-Ville; Membre Gourmet Dégustateur @Ordre Mondial des Gourmets Dégustateurs [OMGD]; Gesellschafter @Goldener Fisch and Member @Slowfood Convivium Zurich City.
