In front of the old side door of the cathedral (the "false door") is a tiny restaurant that is said to be the oldest in Colombia. The family that runs the establishment since its origin (1816) has kept the authentic recipes of the ancestors. It is famous for its tamal, to be enjoyed with hot chocolate, or its almojábana of yellow corn and fresh cheese, to be accompanied by an agua de panela. For a sweet treat, try the Marquesa de Guanábana. The place is small and inconvenient, but it's the heart of the Santafereña tradition!

Facile à trouver. Le resto et le cadre sont sympathiques mais le resto est assez renommé aussi c'est bondé donc vaut mieux réserver. j'ai testé les tamales c'était très bon et le jus de Lulo était bon. Mais ce n'est pas ma meilleure adresse de Bogota.

Effectivement ce restaurant est très connu des colombiens. C'est le meilleur tamal que j'ai goûté en plusieurs mois. Attention, ce n'est pas un grand restaurant, il faut s'attendre à quelques tables et une carte très succincte, accrochée au mur.
