| - I wanted to like this place so much. I know people always say that but damn, it's so true. We wanted a taste of something different and Cleveland and so we decided to come here. How could you not order the Bandeja Paisa? The photos of it are amazing! Colombian sausage, steak, beans, plaintain, egg, avocado and don't forget the big ass chicharron strip that will leave you wanting more.
Uggh, I was frustrated when I saw the actual plate arrive at my table. Everything was tiny. The avocado was a thin slice, the sausage and plantain was the size of my pinkie but by far the MOST disappointing was the chicharron. I'm looking at all of these pics that people are posting and what they get is something that is the size of my arm. When my plate came out I literally thought the waiter forgot the pork skin and was going back to the kitchen to get it until I looked closer at my plate. It was no joke, maybe 2 inches max and super thin (that's what she said). By the time I gave a piece to my bf, I had maybe two bites left. That's why I got the dish in the first plate; because I'm a crispy pork skin whore.
Yes, everything tasted good. I'll give them that. But I felt cheated. I did. Just a heads up the "steak" was more like cube steak and not like a ribeye or anything. It had a super familiar taste to it like the McDonald's secret burger sauce. Try it and argue with me!
I don't know if they just didn't think I could throw down and eat all of my food or if they just really decided to cut back lately, but I was pretty disappointed that I didn't get the same experience as everyone else.
