Fonda Colombiana

It was not crowded on the Thursday that I visited here. We wanted some Colombian food and this place was good. Ask for the spicy sauce to add the meat and the fresh juices.

Regarding the Bandeja Paisa, the beans and rice were prepared to a high standard, offering a delicious and flavorful component. However, the blood sausage and certain meat cuts within the Bandeja Paisa were served at a suboptimal temperature. Furthermore, the chicharrón presented in this dish was notably greasy, lacking the desired meat content and crispy texture. The Picada, conversely, offered a more favorable experience, particularly with its c
