Colombia: Lunch & Dinner in the capital Bogotá

A nice bonus when traveling with kids is if there is a good lunch culture in the country you are visiting. That is absolutely the case in Colombia. No one will look at you strangely if you sit down for a few hours before lunch (and then go to bed nice and early, with the chickens - er, kids, on the roost).

In capital Bogotá you can eat very well, really, you just have to know where to be - otherwise you may often end up with a large piece of meat in front of you. Reservations are required key, so take advantage of these tips!

Compañía Casa del Rey, Bogotá, Colombia

Compañía Casa del Rey, Bogotá, Colombia

We'll start with the absolute must go if it were up to us: Compañía Casa del Rey is hidden in a beautiful old and prestigious building. It takes a bit of searching from outside to find out where to go inside, but that makes it extra fun. You enter through the taquilleria and immediately imagine yourself in other spheres. The high ceiling, the balconies on the second floor, the patio... Everything is great, everything is a big party. And a feast for the eyes.

Apart from that, the kitchen is also amazing. Above all, you can get good meat here (oh hello Colombian cuisine) but also plenty of Mexican – so there is something for everyone. The drinks are delicious and do yourself a favor and take the stairs above to stroll around the building. The service is very sweet and they are happy to take the time and effort for you (sometimes with Google in their palm because English is not spoken here). Be sure to combine this restaurant when you visit the old city! (incl modern art museum! gogogo).

80 silas, Bogotá, Colombia

80 silas, Bogotá, Colombia

A wonderful restaurant with refined dishes, good wines (that is not the case everywhere in Bogotá, Colombia) and fantastic service. Apart from that, restaurant 80 silas is also a treat for those who like perfectly prepared plates: this is where they play champions league for that matter. After all, the eye also wants something. It is definitely advisable to make a reservation here because it often fills up quickly. The ceviches are amazing and it is actually mandatory to order one of them.

Tierra Restaurante, Bogota, Colombia

Tierra Restaurante, Bogota, Colombia

A wonderful restaurant with a fantastic menu. They are very fond of fire, flame and smoke here, so if you order a cocktail here, you can be sure that there will be quite the spectacle involved... Just so you know.

The roasted cauliflower is delicious and even the simplest pastas leave you wanting more.
