... in response to Fed up on Colombian food, posted by Pete E on Jan 3, 2002When I was living in Colombia my diet consisted almost entirely of restaurant food. I would say it was weighted heavily towards pizza, spaggetti, burgers and generally fast food. I would eat at Crepes y Waffles a lot also and as you suggested the food there is pretty good. I was also a big "lomo viche" or baby beef as it is sometimes called fan. My favorite restaurant for baby beef is Rancho de Jonas. I ate typical food also but usually at nicer restaurants were it's prepared better. There's a great typical food restaurant accross from Chipi-Chapi. I've forgotten the name unfortunately. Cali-Viejo is another restaurant that prepares good typical food.
The down side to eating out is that it can be expensive over a months time especially when you're not only paying for yourself but everyone else also.
