| - Sometimes, a great restaurant can seem like world travel. If you enjoy adventurous eating, I recommend you head to the new Columbian Spot. Many of you may remember their booth in the former Public Market, these are the same owners.
Because I visited on the day of the St Patrick's Day Parade, they had a limited menu, but I still got to sample many of their trademark dishes.
First, the empanadas and fantastic. Slightly different that Argentine empanadas, but remarkably delicious.
Then I tried the soup special, which is served with rice, special sauce, and a wedge of avocado. It reminded me of a traditional Brazilian soup, again very tasty and unusual.
I ended with the Columbian Loaded Hamburger, which is much more exotic and flavorful than or traditional hamburgers.
If you are vegetarian, I highly recommend the Vegan empanadas.
I didn't have space to try the Tres Leches, but I'll be back soon because it's my all time favorite dessert.
To drink I had the Mango con leche, which was whipped light and flavorful.
My server was helpful in guiding me through the menu and was attentive. The music and ambience was authentic Columbian and rather casual and comfortable.
BYOB with a $5 corkage per table.
