| - Had an unexpectedly delicious dinner here on a Saturday night. It's a small place, and was nearly empty when we arrived. The waitress seemed a little nervous that we spoke no Spanish, but she managed fine.
I had the Bandeja Paisa, a terrific sampler of some meats and sides. My friend had the Bisteca with plantain, which although not a great cut of beef, had a nice flavorful topping (onions and something slightly sweet) that made it moist and tasty. For dessert, I asked if they could add a splash of dark rum to their Flan, which the owner was happy to oblige. Even asked me for my preference of rum to make sure he got it right.
Friendly and helpful staff, terrific food, reasonable prices. Atmosphere is a little divey, but gave the impression of an authentic typical Colombian joint. They play movies on the TV, so just as my food was served I saw Jabba the Hut getting choked out by a scantily-clad Leia (Return of the Jedi), but hey, I'm a big boy, I can handle it.
