This place makes the best empanadas in all of Bogotá. If you are not familiar with empanadas - here in Bogotá at least - they are fried pockets of dough (made of corn) filled with delicious things. I always get carne (meat) but they have cheese and chicken as well...and everywhere you go they are a bit different. You eat them with lime and aji (hot salsa...there are different kinds) - YUM! I generally order water to try and balance the fried (unhealthy) deliciousness with something that my body actually needs, but they go wonderfully as well with Colombiana - a delicious soda made in, duh, Colombia.
Oh my goodness! You made me laugh by saying you balance out the badness of the fried empanadas with water. Ha ha! I thought you were going to say something with nutrition (though water is important). :-)
ReplyDeleteReminds me of Julie's Empanadas which I'm sure you know . . .
