medellin
this post features cuisines from 3 different countries. colombia (obv), mexico and lebanon. this is because we’re in medellin and it’s well fancy (and not really my cup of tea if i’m honest) day one – lunch at a big fancy supermarket – the name of which escapes me i REALLY enjoyed this salad. it was from one of those salad bars you get down sainos or tescos – you got to pick 3 bits of protein (i went for ham and 2 lots of chicken), 4 bits of fancy extras (avacado, he

cartagena
have i mentioned how much i like arepas con queso? well i do. i frickin LOVE them. they’re similar in taste to cheesy smash (my fave comfort food) squashed into a pattie and grilled over an open flame. MEGANOM!! an interesting point of note is that arepas in restaurants generally taste like shit – bone dry, tough, no cheese – if it aint from a street vendor i aint interested! the above is one of many we ate whilst in cartagena. i figured you didnt need pictures of all of them… day one – dinner at ‘pizza & pasta’

taganga & national park tayrona
i can’t really remember exactly what days each meal was on so I think i’m just going to stick them up here according to location rather than day. best to do this moving forwards too so i don’t confuse myself (easily done) anyway – here’s a selection of the food i’ve eaten whilst staying in taganga: ’shrimp ceviche’ at our hostel on the first night. i thought ce
