What to Eat and Drink
I’ll keep this short, and there may have to be a part two if you’re interested in finding out more about the delicious treats awaiting you if you travel solo in Medellin, but don’t miss out on these Colombian delights:
- Bandeja paisa (the most traditional dish for the region that features fried pork belly or chicharrón (some might even call it a festival of meat on a frisbee-sized plate)
- Mondongo (beef tripe soup)
- Buñuelos (fritters made with cheese, cornstarch and yuca flour)
- Empanadas (fried pastry of deliciousness)
- Perras and perros (Colombian-style hot dogs)
- Coffee! All the coffee you can drink!
This is not even close to an exhaustive list of the culinary delights waiting for you, but it’ll get you off to a good start.
